The Nottingham Suburban Railway opened in 1889 and had largely lost its passenger trains by 1916. These ceased altogether in 1931.
Goods workings continued until 1951 - the line's southern connection with the rest of the system at Trent Lane had been lost to enemy bombing in 1941.
Though it was only three and a half miles long, the Nottingham Suburban railway involved some substantial engineering. In this video, Trekking Exploration goes to look for what remains.
The drone footage is good, and a word too for some excellent period photographs of the line.
