Terraced housing, Netherfield
This area was essentially a railway village, arising from the development of a major locomotive stabling point and marshalling yards to handle coal from the Nottinghamshire coalfields.

Level Crossing, Victoria Road, Netherfield
This line lost its passenger service during the Beeching era but remained open to serve Gedling Colliery, one of the last to remain working in the area. The route has been safeguarded as a potential extension of Nottingham's tram system.

Level crossing, Victoria Road, Netherfield
The railway here is the Great Northern Railway's "back line", which turned through 180 degrees around the edge of greater Nottingham to head eventually west into Derbyshire. After closure as a through route in the early 1960s, this section survived to provide rail access to Gedling Colliery, which closed in 1991. Although the track and the level crossing infrastructure here remain substantially intact, fencing has been erected behind the crossing gates (left), apparently to prevent anyone from surprising the local residents hereabouts with a train.

Netherfield: disused level crossing
Built by the Great Northern Railway where its busy Derbyshire Extension (The Back Line) crossed Netherfield Lane (now Victoria Road). There was also a signal box here (offstage right) which lasted until the 1980s, when The Back Line existed only to serve Gedling Colliery.

Colwick Loco 50 years on ? 3
One of a set of banners http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/6709018 http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/6709020 installed along Victoria Road commemorating Colwick locomotive shed which closed in 1970. The shed was one of the largest in the UK, with an allocation at its maximum of around 200 steam locomotives. It was attached to the extensive marshalling sidings where trains from collieries in the Nottinghamshire/Derbyshire area were formed into larger trains for onward movement to London in particular. The banners mark the passage from the original Great Northern Railway, through the London and North Eastern Railway and finally British Railways. See http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/6709023 for location.
