Part 3 - Weekday Cross, over Nottingham Midland, East Leake
 45267 Weekday Cross |
After accelerating away from Nottingham Victoria under the tunnel, 45267 bursts into the open at Weekday Cross, where the Great Northern branches off towards Grantham (May 1966). |
| Here is a view from a London bound semi-fast approaching the structure over Nottingham Midland. Just beyond this point is Awkwright Street station, which was the northern "terminus" for local services until 1969 (see tickets). |  Over Nottingham Midland |
