Markeaton Park Light Railway : Attraction of Derby

The Markeaton Park Light Railway operates within Markeaton Park, one of Derby’s major parks which is located next to what remains of Markeaton Village, in Derby in the East Midlands of England.

The trains are owned by a charitable trust and are driven and maintained by volunteers. The main station is located at the Ashbourne Road/Queensway entrance to the park, next to the old army buildings and car park. Trains run every twenty minutes to the Mundy Play Centre; the journey is about three quarters of a mile long.
