Description: | Showing flooding on the A6 as viewed from the station. The railway station at Ambergate was notable in being one of only three stations in England to be arranged in a triangular fashion. This situation arose in 1876 when a new station was constructed within the triangular junction formed by the divergence of the Midland Railway's Derby to Leeds and Ambergate-Matlock-Manchester main lines. Today, only a section of Platform 2 remains in use for trains between Derby and Matlock; the site of Platforms 3 and 4, which were taken out of use in 1968, has been infilled to form a car park. | Format: | JPEG/IMAGE | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/2.0/uk/ | Publisher: | North East Midland Photographic Record | Source: | Picture the Past OAI feed | Creator: | Shaw, N | Identifier: | http://www.picturethepast.org.uk/fronten... | Language: | EN-GB | Format: | JPEG/IMAGE | Go to resource |
