Скачать или смотреть *Christmas Countdown Special Day 12* - Trains at Beeston, MML, 28/11/25

Beeston railway station serves the town of Beeston in Nottinghamshire, England. It lies on a spur of the Midland Main Line and is managed by East Midlands Railway.

It is situated 3.2 miles (5.1 km) south-west of Nottingham railway station and 750 metres (0.5 mi) south-east of Beeston transport interchange, for local bus services and Nottingham Express Transit trams.

The station building is Grade II listed.

The original station building, which was little more than a cottage, was replaced in 1847 with the substantially larger white brick building with ashlar trimmings which still exists.

This is notable for its carved bargeboards, some remaining diagonal paned windows and the pseudo-heraldic shields with 'MR' and 1847.

The wooden platform canopies and adjacent wrought-iron and glass canopy were installed in 1871.

The wooden platform canopies were originally located at Southwell railway station, and were relocated to Beeston when Southwell was rebuilt.

The level crossing, lattice footbridge and signal box survived until 1969, when Beeston and Stapleford Urban District Council built a road bridge (Station Bridge) across the railway to ease traffic delays caused by the frequent closure of the level crossing.

This effectively replaced the footbridge between the two platforms.

Between 20 July and 25 August 2013, the services from the station were reduced because of the Nottingham remodelling and resignalling scheme.

It acted as a terminus for trains from London, via East Midlands Parkway, and from Derby, with a frequent rail-replacement shuttle bus running to and from Nottingham while the western end of the station and approach lines were remodelled.

We’ll be seeing services by East Midlands Railway, Cross Country and hopefully freight as well.

I hope you enjoyed this video if you did smash that like button and don’t forget to subscribe for more upcoming videos and feel free to leave any comments or recommendations of stations that you would like for me to do in the comments below as I’ll try get back to them as soon as possible.

It’s my 1st time visiting Beeston I would’ve been at the station sooner but the train got delayed whilst on the route from St Pancras but the weather wasn’t the greatest in the duration of the time I was there for but the positive thing is that I saw an EMR 810 on a test run and a Cross Country 170 that’s in the new livery but hopefully the next time I visit Beeston it won’t be raining.

My next station will be Attenborough which is a few minutes away from the station and situated on the Midland Mainline and it’s also another station that I’ve never been train spotting at but hopefully it’ll be good station to go to but until then thanks for watching and I’ll see you in the next video.
