THE MIDLAND RAILWAY STUDY CENTRE
Some Places on the Midland Railway

This list of locations that the Midland Railway served or otherwise had a connection with is not exhaustive but gives an indication of the company's scope and scale. You might question why Aberdeen is included, for example, but the Company had an Agency there and so does count. On that basis we could also include Paris but that's taking it a bit too far in this context! Also largely absent in this list are places served by “joint lines” and the wholly owned subsidiary company, the Northern Counties Committee in the North of Ireland, not to mention the steamships which linked them.
