Only Memories Remain: The Fading Remains of the Great Central Railway

Описание: Only Memories Remain: The Fading Remains of the Great Central Railway is the second part of our journey tracing the lost route of the Great Central Mainline north of Annesley — part of the Manchester, Sheffield & Lincolnshire Railway’s historic Derbyshire lines. In this episode, we explore what’s left of this once-vital railway between Kirkby in Ashfield and Heath, passing through Blackwell, Tibshelf, and Pilsley.

Much of this legendary line has been erased — buried beneath farmland, housing estates, industrial units, and modern infrastructure. Yet fragments still cling on, offering tantalising glimpses into a vanished industrial age. From forgotten bridges and overgrown embankments to surprising surviving features, we reveal what remains of this iconic route.

If you're passionate about railway history, abandoned railways, UK transport heritage, or local industrial history, this video is for you. We highlight the changing landscapes of Derbyshire’s lost railways, the impact of closure, and the traces that survive over 60 years since trains last ran.
