Only one track seems to be in use - as a test track for Network Rail https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_Marnham_Test_Track There is a campaign to reopen this line to passenger trains between Shirebrook Junction and a point a little to the east of where this photograph was taken. Stations would be provided at Warsop, Edwinstowe and Ollerton.
