Huge blaze at Nottingham railway station.

Firefighters are tackling a huge blaze at Nottingham railway station.

Ten fire crews are at the city centre station after the fire broke out at about 06:30 GMT.

Suspected arson according to several reports - fire appears to have started in a public toilet and spread to the roof.
Station has been closed all day with no trains running and it is "unlikely" to be reopened tomorrow (Saturday).

Thank goodness there were no casualties.
Very sad though when one deranged person can cause such senseless damage.

Did they rule out terrorism? Seems awefully suspicious to me.
