Clipstone

Clipstone on the Shirebrook to Thoresby line, the next box from Thoresby towards Shirebrook. This box stands at the triangular junction the southern conergence leads to to the former Mansfield Concentration sidings and to various collieries all now closed. The box also controls the re-opened Welbeck line, trains having to pass the box twice travelling to and from Thoresby to run round.
