Summary

edit
Description
English: Map of England showing the route of the former Great Central Main Line, a fast railway line which opened in 1899 between Sheffield and London. It was designed by the railway baron Edward Watkin. His 1880s Channel tunnel project failed but his railway ran express trains to London until 1966, when it was closed during the Beeching cuts. A short section of the route is to be re-built for the planned HS2 line.
