The original terminal station in Lincoln for this line (Lincoln Midland, later St Marks) was closed in the 1980s and the line realigned to use a second station (Central).

Harrison, Teague & Birch opened a foundry near Holmes Bridge in St. Marks Lane (1874). The firm’s business expanded rapidly during the last decade of the 19th century and, with no room for expansion on their existing site, the company established a branch plant in North Hykeham. These works, later to be known locally as “The Malleable”, were steadily enlarged and in 1922 the St Marks foundry was closed and all of the firm’s operations were transferred to North Hykeham. aka The Hykeham Foundry Company. aka Harrison and Co (Lincoln) aka The Malleable Hostel blocks were built in WW2 for migrant workers.
