Once the railway to Grantham

Image: © John Sutton Taken: 20 Apr 2012

After the closure of Nottingham Victoria Station in 1966 the parts of the Great Northern Railway Grantham line through Sneinton to Netherfield were abandoned. Since then, Grantham trains have used the Midland route as far as Netherfield, where the Lincoln and Grantham lines part. The GNR trackbed is now a footpath through Sneinton from Manvers Street to Daleside Road East.
