Lost Railway Towns: Melbourne’s Military Rail Past in Derbyshire | Abandoned Railway History UK

In this episode of Lost Railway Towns, we visit Melbourne, a beautiful Derbyshire town with a rich but forgotten railway and military history. Once served by a branch of the Midland Railway, Melbourne played a surprising role in World War II, with its railway line repurposed for military operations, supply trains, and even munitions transport. But today, the tracks are silent — and much of the rail infrastructure lies abandoned or reclaimed by nature.

Join us as we explore what remains of Melbourne’s lost railway, searching for overgrown platforms, forgotten cuttings, and the industrial remnants of a line that once connected this town to the wider rail network.

This video is part of a wider UK railway history series, focusing on towns and cities across Britain that have lost their rail links — victims of time, conflict, and the Beeching cuts.

If you're passionate about railway heritage, transport geography, and the industrial history of the UK, this is a journey you won’t want to miss. Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe!
