GNR Derbyshire Extension :
On this interactive map I have plotted the entire route of the former GNR Derbyshire Extension onto an interactive modern map of the route viewed as Satellite imagery. The initial view that you will see is above Friar Gate Railway Bridge at a zoom level of 20 Metres. The zoom level can be changed with the controls on the left, this is the simplest way to get to Egginton.

Even though the route was abandoned 40 years ago you clearly see the route. I used a map from 1921 to follow the original route from Egginton Station all the way to Kimberley.
I have marked the route with a blue transparent line, also along the route you will see red markers if clicked these will provide you with extra details along the route.
