    There had been plans for a tunnel under East Midlands Airport as part of the HS2 route but they've been scrapped.

    And there's expected to be more planning to come - while it will take 51 minutes to get from the new station at Toton to London Euston, it currently takes about half an hour to get from there into Nottingham.

    Coming up with different ways to connect the city, as well as areas like Mansfield and Ashfield, to the station are next on the agenda.

    As expected, the track will split north of Birmingham, with lines going to Manchester and Leeds - it's that leg that will pass through Nottinghamshire, with the East Midlands hub at Toton.
