Sh2-150, vdB-154 and ?????

Does anyone know the identity of the small reflection nebula to the right of bottom-centre?  I couldn't find it in my searching.

I have identified the fan shaped nebula with the help of reddit user 'spastrophoto'.  It is RNO142, from the Catalogue of Red and Nebulous Objects complied in 1980.
