Exploring the Brampton/ Lord Carlisle's Railway

The Brampton Railway was originally constructed in 1798. And, it was primarily designed to transport coal from Tindale Fell to Brampton staiths. Initially, it comprised various short segments of wooden railways that had been built earlier. In 1836 the route was altered to meet the newly opened Newcastle and Carlisle Railway at Brampton Junction. The section from the junction to Brampton was later transferred to the North Eastern Railway, carrying passengers and goods, but it closed in 1923. The remaining portion of the railway was exclusively dedicated to serving collieries and other mineral-related activities. Over time, it experienced several extensions in the remote hills located to the south of Brampton. Its prosperity was closely tied to the success of the collieries. However, following the nationalization of the pits in 1947, a significant decline set in, ultimately leading to the closure of the line in 1953. Throughout its existence, the railway was known by various names, including the Tindale Fell Railway, the Midgeholme Railway, the Hartleyburn & Brampton Railway, and simply the Brampton Railway.
