A view from the new footbridge at Trent Lane
The lines to Lincoln and Grantham divide at Netherfield. In the distance the tower block on Colwick Road is outlined against Colwick Woods. A 1950s childhood memory of going on the train to see an aunt at Rolleston is of the tin baths hanging by the back doors of the houses on Whittier Road, on the left. Image] is a view in this direction from the foot crossing the new bridge has superseded.

Remains of Nottingham Suburban Railway Bridge No 2
This blue brick abutment and wing wall once supported the bowstring girder bridge and embankment which carried Nottingham-bound trains on the Nottingham Suburban Railway across the Great Northern Railway Grantham line. The NSR line swung west on a 1 in 48 downward gradient and crossed the Midland line at Trent Lane before joining the GNR at Trent Lane Junction. This southern end of the NSR (1889-1951) was abandoned after wartime bomb damage to the embankment between Trent Lane and Colwick Road. Image] shows the GNR line, looking eastwards towards here.

Once the railway to Grantham
After the closure of Nottingham Victoria Station in 1966 the parts of the Great Northern Railway Grantham line through Sneinton to Netherfield were abandoned. Since then, Grantham trains have used the Midland route as far as Netherfield, where the Lincoln and Grantham lines part. The GNR trackbed is now a footpath through Sneinton from Manvers Street to Daleside Road East.

Trent Lane: waiting for the signal
A delayed Norwich-Liverpool train held at a signal at Trent Lane, waiting for a platform at Nottingham Station. Colwick Woods and the flats on Colwick Road are in the background. The large brick abutment on the right once supported the girder bridge which carried Nottingham-Grantham trains until the closure of Nottingham Victoria Station in 1966.
