    After 40 years, Trattoria Antonio, just around the corner from the City Ground, is set to be re-developed.

    Customers have been leaving messages of thanks on the walls.

    Owner, Gaetano Scotece, said "If you look round the place, all the messages that people have left tell you how much we have meant in their lives and they've meant to us."

    Prices on CrossCountry have gone up on average by 4.1%, and East Midlands Trains by 3.3%.

    The campaign group, Railfuture, claims the increase means people are being priced out of getting to work.

    Jake Kelly, from East Midlands Trains, said: "As well as helping to fund the biggest national investment in the railways since Victorian times through increased payments to government, the money from fares is also helping to drive many real improvements for customers across the East Midlands Trains network".
