Why such a Rush to Destroy this Railway? The Great Central Railway in Nottingham

The Great Central Railway, closed since the 1960s. Whilst walking todays video it dawned on me...
Why was the government in such a rush to get rid of and bury this railway?
Unlike other lines, Midland, Great Northern that have many closed but accessable lengths still around, the GCR just seemed to get flattened, built on, Decimated immediatly!

In this video i walk a section from Linby in Nottinghamshire via Hucknall and onto Bulwell.

Sadly this route is all chopped up, in some instances entire embankments hava vanished!

Join me as i follow a section of the Great Central Railway Mainline in Nottingham
