Join us for a special Railway 200 feature: “1825 to 2025: Railway 200 – The Cromford & High Peak Railway.” While the Stockton & Darlington Railway is widely credited as the start of the modern railway era, this video explores an equally important but often overlooked route – Derbyshire’s Cromford & High Peak Railway.

Passed by Act of Parliament in 1825 and opened in 1830, this early industrial railway is a true pioneer of long-distance rail transport. Built to connect the Cromford Canal to the Peak Forest Canal, this remarkable line tackled extreme gradients, winding inclines, and rugged moorland, making it one of the most ambitious feats of engineering of its time.

We explore key heritage sites including the Newhaven Tunnel, which still proudly bears an 1825 date stone, and examine the historical significance of this railway within the broader Railway 200 celebrations.

Whether you're fascinated by abandoned railways, railway history, industrial archaeology, or Derbyshire’s local transport heritage, this video is packed with visuals, facts, and insights just for you.
