I think there was a station called Nottingham Racecourse after Gedling and Carlton.

Kegworth

Wasn't Nottingham Racecourse on the line which went off to Nottingham London Rd High Level and the GC to Nottingham Victoria?

Thank you...It was not on my draft, but for some reason had stuck in my mind. I am sure that this area of the Midlands is far better known to you than me.

Nottingham Racecourse has no access to Nottingham Midland on Wiki's map. However my pre grouping railway atlas suggests it may though the scale is a bit small so interpreting it is difficult. It's certainly on the D&S extension line

I've unearthed a better map from which it's fairly clear that the extension line passed over the Midland (Lincoln) line west of Nottingham Racecourse station but that there was no physical connection between the two either there or anywhere else in the area
