A new use for part of the old Stanton Ironworks site. The level concrete base of a demolished building makes an ideal location. By setting out the track like this, it can be accurately set up in advance, then broken down into smaller sections so that the final installation can be carried out in the shortest possible time, thus minimising disruption to train services. This could be part of the forthcoming remodelling of Nottingham Station.
