The Nottingham Suburban Railway (1889-1951) lost its passenger service as long ago as 1916 - the result of competition from the city's electric trams - but continued to serve the brickworks whose owners had promoted the line. The NSR's Bridge No 5 carried Sneinton Boulevard over a deep cutting now filled in. See Image] for the view to the north.
