Photos include probably the world’s most popular steam locomotive, the Flying Scotsman at the Barrow Hill Roundhouse reopening in 2017.
Another photo shows the impressive engine steaming through Chesterfield in 1973.
Also pictured is Great Longstone railway station which closed in 1962. One train a day in each direction stopped at the station to allow resident Mrs Boardman, a hospital sister, to travel to work in Buxton.

One train a day in each direction continued to stop to allow local resident Mrs Boardman, a hospital sister, to travel to work in Buxton. Mrs Boardman had her own key to the booking office and every night she telephoned the station master at Derby so that he could make arrangements for the train to stop.
