Elton & Orston ✅- Station 395/2589 Least Used in Nottinghamshire✅ Britain’s Least Used Station ✅ Elton & Orston, is Britain’s Least Used Station being used by just 68 people in the last financial year, it’s got sparse facilities and gets Two trains a day (6:55 & 17:11).

Bottesford ✅ - Station 394/2589 A nice little station, staggered platforms, a little foot crossing towards the west of the station, hourly service for most the day but at times some don’t stop here. Good for photos especially stuff heading towards Grantham.

Grantham ✅- Station 393/2589 A nice station in a large town, fan of the station building and copies. Frequent services to London, the midlands and the north east. LNER & EMR serve here. I would recommend this station for night photography, under the station canopies is best.
