Looking towards Sheffield city centre from the Archer Road overbridge. There used to be four tracks here but now there are only two. And though four tracks would be useful on today's congested railway, especially as HS2 trains may be using them in the future, it is unlikely to happen as some of the land has been used for commercial purposes.
