As well as the ex-GNR lines, it will also feature the ertswhile Nottingham Suburban line and the still-surviving former Midland Railway route to Newark and Lincoln. Although still under construction, three of the baseboards were at the March 2007 NOTTINGHAM East Midlands MODEL RAILWAY EXHIBITION, as part of a major feature to celebrate the 150th anniversary of the Great Northern Railway arriving in the City of Nottingham and the opening of its lines into London Road Low Level, as depicted in the model.
