Preservation Future
Peak Rail still plans to extend their heritage rail services via both "Rowsley railway station" and a propsoed "Haddon" Halt towards Bakewell. This would require additional restoration of the old tunnel itself and both Rowsley and Coombes Road Viaducts, plus reinstating the Bakewell station site to its original condition by the year 2016.
There is also currently a problem with the loss of the trackbed near to where it crosses the A6, which may require fundraising to rebuild and reinstate as part of Peak Rail's future plans to reconstruct the whole 20 miles of track between Matlock and Buxton themselves.

Famous quotes containing the words preservation and/or future:
“If there is ANY THING which it is the duty of the WHOLE PEOPLE to never entrust to any hands but their own, that thing is the preservation and perpetuity, of their own liberties, and institutions.”
—Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
“... the loss of belief in future states is politically, though certainly not spiritually, the most significant distinction between our present period and the centuries before. And this loss is definite. For no matter how religious our world may turn again, or how much authentic faith still exists in it, or how deeply our moral values may be rooted in our religious systems, the fear of hell is no longer among the motives which would prevent or stimulate the actions of a majority.”
—Hannah Arendt (1906–1975)
