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.

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.

Netherfield: Victoria Road
Looking towards the centre of Netherfield, with the former Co-op and a chapel on the corner of Dennis Street. Netherfield mushroomed in the late 19th century around the huge Colwick engine shed and marshalling yards (see Ben Brooksbank's Image]).

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.

Netherfield Co-operative Industrial Society
This shop, built in 1895 in what was then a mushrooming settlement around the Great Northern Railway's huge Colwick engine shed and marshalling yards, is on the corner of Victoria Road and Dennis Street. Now occupied by Suite Sleep, it looks rather smarter than when Alan Murray-Rust photographed it in January 2007: Image

Netherfield: former Level Crossing Keeper's House
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, to the left of the house, which lasted until the 1980s, when The Back Line existed only to serve Gedling Colliery.
