I'd recommend Tamworth High Level - Only been there a few times myself however seemed pretty good. As for running up and down the stairs i'd say stick to the high level as there are moves often from Derby - Lougborough Brush and stock moves to the South West.

Regarding Nuneaton i'd say Tamworth is better as most freights use the avoiding line which IIRC runs across ona higher level next to the station.

Hope this helps!

Nah, Nuneaton all the way for me. I can't be bothered with all the running up and down, and it's not an avoider at Nunny, it's just the line from Birmingham to Leicester which happens to meet at Nuneaton. A bit like Tamworth with crossing lines, but it's all phottable from the main bit.
Was in Nunny yesterday, you can have a look at some pics if you want here:

Prefer Rugby myself, never tried Tamworth, and people had got all the good spots at Nuneaton and I found it crap for photting.
