Derby Manchester Railway Feasibility
The plans to reopen the Manchester route from Matlock to Buxton seems to be gathering momentum and their members are actively promoting the project at public events. If they can attract freight as well as passengers, it looks quite a viable plan.
The passenger proposals include a combination of commercial and heritage traffic use, so here's hoping they achieve their goals.

Established with support from Manchester and East Midlands Rail Action Partnership, the company is leading the work to reinstate and upgrade the former Midland Mainline railway between Ambergate and Chinley - fondly known as ‘the Peaks and Dales Railway’.[Quote] © Peaks and Dales Railway Limited, 2020 - All Rights Reserved |

Unfortunately some ramblers groups are trying to oppose this scheme on the narrow grounds that having a real railway back there would inconvenience them! You know who at Haddon Hall will obviously do his best to oppose it too.
