Nottingham to Lincoln Line
The Nottingham to Lincoln Line is a railway line in central England, running north-east from Nottingham to Lincoln.
The line between Newark and Lincoln is currently only cleared for speeds. Nottinghamshire County Council has paid for a study into running.
==History==
The Nottingham to Lincoln line was opened by the Midland Railway on 3 August 1846. It was engineered by George Stephenson. Originally the line ended at Lincoln Midland station (later renamed St. Marks) which was built as a terminus. The line was later extended to a junction just east of Lincoln Central railway station (the former Great Northern station), enabling through running from Nottingham to the South Humber ports and Cleethorpes. This extension led to over a hundred years of pedestrian and driver frustration in central Lincoln because there were two mainline level crossings on the High Street within 350 metres, resulting in congestion and traffic chaos. Lincoln St. Marks station was closed (along with its High Street crossing) in the mid-1980s when a diversionary curve was laid to allow services from Nottingham to enter Lincoln Central. The old station building is now part of a shopping centre and houses Lakeland.
Most passenger trains were taken over by diesel units from 14 April 1958, taking about an hour between the two cities.〔Railway Magazine June 1958 p. 432〕
