Manchester, Buxton, Matlock and Midlands Junction Railway (Paperback)

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Manchester, Buxton, Matlock and Midlands Junction Railway initially served neither Manchester nor the Midlands, since its connection with the North Midland Railway at Ambergate Junction was in a northerly direction. This was possibly because of a planned intention to join with the proposed Ambergate, Nottingham, Boston and Eastern Junction Railway which would meet it a little further north along the North Midland line. The Act for a line from just south of Stockport to Ambergate was passed in 1846.
