Buxton Midland
Twin terminus station helped to put this town on the railway map, the Midland and London North Western Railway Stations being side by side. The line from Millers Dale to Buxton was operated as the branch, with through trains going to Manchester. Motor trains were introduced by the LMS, to avoid having to run around the train, BR later introduced DMUs. There were also trains consisting of single 'through coaches', to be joined to expresses to London St. Pancras. Peak Rail has an LMS coach of the type that was used for this service, it may have even seen use here! The Midland station was unfortunately demolished when the line from Matlock to Millers Dale was taken up, the short section into the station was removed also, the line for Millers Dale being from then for freight only from the Tunstead Quarries. Peak Rail own enough land for another station at Buxton, and have already replaced the missing bridge to get from the station back onto the old formation. Buxton is still served by the LNWR station.
