The Lost Railway Town with FOUR Stations | Sutton-in-Ashfield’s Forgotten Past

Join me as we explore Sutton-in-Ashfield – the lost railway town that once boasted FOUR railway stations, yet today has none within the town itself. In this episode of our UK-wide series on lost railways and forgotten railway towns, we delve into the rich transport history of this Nottinghamshire community.

Sutton-in-Ashfield was once a bustling hub served by the Midland Railway, Great Northern Railway, and Great Central Railway – each leaving their mark on the local landscape. But over time, the tracks were lifted, the stations closed, and the town’s direct connection to the railway network was lost. While Sutton Parkway Station exists today, it sits outside the town centre, a far cry from the golden age of rail.

In this video, we uncover the locations of the town’s four lost stations, explore how the railway shaped local industry and community life, and examine why it all disappeared. This is a must-watch for anyone passionate about British railway history, industrial heritage, and transport geography.
