Hi Bubblewrap,
Ahh, you have mentioned the most special of stations. Nottingham Victoria.
I was in Nottingham at the weekend and a little bit more of this wonderful line is disappearing. The entrance to Weekday Cross tunnel has a new developement right up to the lip of the tunnel mouth. The tunnel is still as good as the day it was built and is used to pipe hot water heating to the flats in the Victoria centre. This comes from the Eastcroft incinerator plant and uses the waste heat to heat the water up.
The whole station and approach was a magnificent landmark, sadly missed.
Paul.
