The blue-brick abutment to the right of the train is one of the remains of the Nottingham Suburban Railway's Bridge No 1. The larger stone-and-brick abutment covered with idiot scribblings once supported the huge girder bridge which carried the Great Northern Nottingham to Grantham line over the Midland Railway's Lincoln line. All eastbound trains now use the Midland route as far as Netherfield, where the Lincoln and Grantham lines part.
