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.
