Langley Mills railways

Some really good photographs above.

Anyway, as a nipper standing among the excited throng of Coppice Miners and their families on the 1940s platform, at the start of their then, one week's annual holiday, i KNEW the history of the Langley Mill Railway.
It consisted of only one train plus one set of railway tracks and it was built specially, by some kindly soul, to take us excited children to the Derbys. Miner's Holiday Camp at Skegness. Nothing more, nothing less.
Then time passed and another dream crashed.
