History

Although the village of Toton has existed since at least Norman times, little is known of its history. Few old buildings remain, and most housing is twentieth century. The town grew principally because of Toton Sidings (see Toton Traction Maintenance Depot), a huge marshalling yard of the Midland Railway, where coal from the Nottinghamshire Coal Field would be sorted before being sent to the rest of the United Kingdom. The site is popular with railway enthusiasts, who can often be seen with cameras and binoculars, viewing the sidings from the nearby A52. Norman conquests in red. ...

Other definitions of Toton

Toton, or correctly written in Spanish, totón, also refers to a person, usually a student, that constantly strives to study and impress people around him or her. Doing so makes this person feel higher, nonsubstantial satisfaction when solving extremely trivial situations, which consequently minimizes the effect of the cognitive dissonance that has developed throughout the years due to the social and intellectual ineptitudes. In general, totones fail miserably in life and end up just contributing to world inefficiencies and, contrary to popular altruistic expectations, decreasing the social welfare.
