This view eastwards from Park Lane bridge shows how the course of the former Great Northern Railway line from Nottingham to Derby Friargate has been obliterated since it closed in 1968. Ben Brooksbank's Image] shows what the lines east of here looked like in the days of steam; the position of the engine in that picture was just beyond the houses straight ahead.
