Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The former Monsal Dale station
The line which now forms part of the Monsal Trail was built by the Midland Railway. It was opened on 30th May 1863, eventually forming part of a main line link between London and Manchester. Monsal Dale station opened a year or so later on 1st September 1866. The station was closed to passengers on 10th August 1959 and finally after the last Ramblers' Special on 3rd April 1961. The remaining stations on the line were closed on 4th March 1967. Express passenger and goods services continued to pass through until 14th July 1968 after which much of the line through this part of the Peak District closed completely. Track lifting began in 1969 and the route through the station here is now part of the Monsal Trail, popular with walkers and cyclists.
