Proposed Extension & (Future) Stations
There has been a proposal for Peak Rail to extend the line north to Rowsley village proper "to the site of Rowsley Station itself", and then to Bakewell railway station via a proposed Haddon Halt.
Now that the Peak Rail/Network Rail reconnection project is complete, work on extending via Rowsley and Haddon Halt towards Bakewell is likely to begin once finances allow.
This would include full restoration of the old Haddon tunnel and both Coombs Road & Rowsley viaducts to their former use and re-excavating the platforms back to normal size to allow trains to enter the site once planning permission is granted.

Famous quotes containing the words proposed, extension and/or stations:
“On the 31st of August, 1846, I left Concord in Massachusetts for Bangor and the backwoods of Maine,... I proposed to make excursions to Mount Ktaadn, the second highest mountain in New England, about thirty miles distant, and to some of the lakes of the Penobscot, either alone or with such company as I might pick up there.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Predatory capitalism created a complex industrial system and an advanced technology; it permitted a considerable extension of democratic practice and fostered certain liberal values, but within limits that are now being pressed and must be overcome. It is not a fit system for the mid- twentieth century.”
—Noam Chomsky (b. 1928)
“The only road to the highest stations in this country is that of the law.”
—William Jones (1746–1794)
