Nottingham Suburban Railway
http://dbpedia.org/resource/Nottingham_Suburban_Railway an entity of type: Thing
The Nottingham Suburban Railway was a British railway company that constructed a line 3.65 miles (5.87 km) in length serving the north-eastern suburbs of Nottingham. It was built to shorten the distance by train to Ilkeston and towns on the Leen Valley railway line, and to connect important brickworks near Nottingham. The short line was expensive to build due to difficult topography; it opened in December 1889, and was worked by the Great Northern Railway; the trains used that company's Nottingham terminus.

The short line was expensive to build due to difficult topography; it opened in December 1889, and was worked by the Great Northern Railway; the trains used that company's Nottingham terminus. The line was soon by-passed by another route to the Leen Valley, and electric street-running trams attracted most of the local passenger business. Passenger stations on the line closed in 1916, and it closed completely in 1954.
