View southward on the ex-GNR East Coast Main Line - recently electrified, towards Grantham, Peterborough and London King's Cross. The view is taken from platform remains of the High Level station on the ex-GCR Lancashire, Derbyshire & East Coast Line (Chesterfield - Lincoln). Both levels of Dukeries Junction station were closed from 6/3/50. Passenger services on the LD&EC line lasted until 19/9/55, but freight (mainly coal) continued right on until 2003; since 8/09 the bridge here has carried the High Marnham Test Track.
