OTHER WAYS IN WHICH WE CAN HELP YOU TO OBTAIN INFORMATION ABOUT THE MIDLAND RAILWAY







If you are researching your family history and you have an ancestor who worked for the Midland Railway, please follow this link.


We recognise that it is very often not possible, or even appropriate, for you to come to Derby to find information about the Midland Railway - especially if your enquiry only incidentally touches  on railway matters - family history, for example.

In such cases, the resources of the Study Centre and the partner organisations from which it  is formed, are not denied to you.

Therefore, if you would like us to try and help find out something for you which relates to the Midland Railway then please either write to us or send an email. We regret that it is very difficult to handle such enquiries by telephone as we deal with them as a team, so letters and emails can be copied and forwarded without losing vital information.

When contacting us, besides obvious contact details, we need to know the following:

  • What do you want to know? Please  be as specific as possible - "everything about the Settle & Carlisle line" is an extreme example, but even  just asking in general terms about a particular station will make it difficult for us to give you sensible response.
  • What do you already know? There is no need to go into detail, but telling us, for example, what documents or libraries etc. that you have already consulted will, again, make things easier for us.
We will endeavour to give you a response very quickly, but ask you to bear with us as your enquiry will be dealt with by one or more volunteers whose spare time may be limited. For that reason, we reserve the right to levy a fee on commercial organisations requesting research by the Study Centre partners - please contact us for details. There is no fee for private individuals.
