===Rail=== The town was served by five stations. Only one is now open: *'''[[Sutton Junction railway station|Sutton Junction]]''' on the [[Robin Hood Line]] which closed in the 1960s. *'''[[Sutton Parkway railway station|Sutton Parkway]]''' which now serves the town on the Robin Hood Line which has since the 1990s provided the town with regular rail service between [[Nottingham]] and [[Worksop]]. The station is two miles south of the town centre at the junction of Low Moor Road [[B roads in Zone 6 of the Great Britain numbering scheme|(B6021)]] towards [[Kirkby-in-Ashfield]] and Penny Emma Way. The railway was formerly mostly used by the area's pits, which closed in the early 1990s. *'''[[Sutton-in-Ashfield Central railway station|Sutton-in-Ashfield Central]]''' was on the now-defunct [[Mansfield Railway]] and the station was located south of the town centre. The site is now occupied by a steel merchant. *'''[[Sutton-in-Ashfield railway station|Sutton General]]''' which was on a very short branch from Sutton Junction. The station was closed to passengers in the 1920s and the site is now occupied by a retail store. *'''[[Sutton-in-Ashfield Town railway station|Sutton-in-Ashfield Town]]''' which was on the branch line from [[Nottingham Victoria railway station|Nottingham Victoria]] to [[Shirebrook North railway station|Shirebrook North]]. The station closed in 1931 and the line in 1968. The site has been razed but the old abandoned station master's house can be seen, in a state of decay. The line is now part of the Skegby Trail.
