Class 150 cab ride Derby to Matlock 1990

A class 150 cab ride from Derby to Matlock filmed in 1990
A once important route to Manchester reduced to a single track branch line
No commentary just cab chat.

I remember travelling the whole of this lovely line to Manchester and back in the 1960s. I do wish it would all re-open again! Thanks for your great video.

One of those guys in the cab has a strong Northampton accent! Great video! My mum came from the Derbyshire Peak District and I spent many days in the Matlock area as a child!

Nice video, I love the sound of travelling on jointed track.

Interesting to see that the Wirksworth branch was still connected at this time.

Few years before Oasis had their photo shoot at Cromford Station, with Liam waving off the Footbridge. JG.
