Erewash Valley railway line, Codnor Park
Looking north from Station Lane bridge.
The signalling on the gantry includes junction indicators for Pye Bridge junction where a line to Mansfield splits from the main line. All three tracks here are signalled for bi-directional operation.
The bridge abutments in the foreground carried the Butterley Company's main line into the Codnorpark ironworks with a connection onto the Erewash Valley line at Codnorpark Station.

Station Lane Bridge, Codnor Park
The rail authority notice http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/5993235 locates this bridge at Jacksdale, although it is on the other side of the River Erewash, and in a different County.

Station Lane Bridge, Codnor Park, notice
The location is incorrectly addressed as Jacksdale, rather than Codnor or Ironville. Jacksdale is actually in a different County. Clearly someone local has taken objection and tried to obliterate the name.
