The Matlock Branch is already very heavily used and the opening of the EVR to Duffield has contributed quite significantly to passenger numbers at Weekends. I am amazed how many of the visitors to the EVR arive by train. On some EMT Trains it has been standing room only to Duffiled.
The reason many people use the line is probably because the A6 is woefully inadequate but is unlikely to be deveoped as it goes through a World Heritage Site.
I expect to go on travelling on the Matlock for years to come. However, judging from the crack pot ideas that have come out of N0. 10 over the last 12 months, I supose anything is possible!
Best wishes,
John H-T.
