Warsop railway station

To the north was a branch to Warsop Main colliery with extensive marshalling yards, now closed.

This was the beginning of the area known as The Dukeries, heavily promoted in the railway's literature in the hope of attracting tourist trade.

Further on into the Maun valley the GCR did build a junction for Mansfield Central, initially facing Lincoln, but then converted to a triangular one.

[9] The position in August 1939 was not greatly changed, though the late train to Mansfield Central had disappeared.

[11][12] The line through the station site gives access from Shirebrook to UK Coal's Thoresby Colliery and to the High Marnham Test Track.
