Peak Rail welcomes you to journey back to a bygone age and experience the thrill of steam and diesel on their preserved railway, operating between Rowsley South and Matlock Platform 2 for a distance of 4 miles and open to the public throughout the year.

The line forms part of the old Midland Railway’s line between Manchester Central and London St Pancras which was closed in 1968.

From May to September the picnic area will be open where children can play with large out door games. For people with disabilities we have a special adapted carriage which is fully accessible for wheelchair uses.
