Cromford Station in Derbyshire, 15 June 1911
A Manchester to St Pancras express No 723 heads through Cromford Station on the Midlands Peak line between Manchester and Derby. The line was notable for serving the estates of several members of the aristocracy. At Cromford it was the Arkwright family of Willersley Castle. The station buildings have an Alpine flavour appropriate in a part of the country known as Little Switzerland. National Railway Museum is the home of iconic locomotives. Our historic prints reflect the age and quality of the original artwork we hold to preserve their artistic character, including authentic colour reproduction, marks and creases. © National Railway Museum / Science & Society Picture Libr
