This gave the MR a route stretching all the way to Manchester which it had long desired. The line between Rowsley and Buxton was only the first stage though as on the 1st February 1867 a further line opened from a point a couple of miles to the west of Millers Dale to New Mills. Inter company rivalry, finance and landowner objections had all delayed things and it was only the possibility that rival companies might build a route between Derby and Manchester that finally moved the MR to get their Act of 1860. Ever since the 1840s there had been a desire by the MR to reach the important industrial town of Manchester. Millers Dale station opened on the 1st of June 1863 on the MR line that had been authorised in May 1860 and completed in its entirety from Rowsley to Buxton by the stations opening date. Notes: Millers Dale Station was situated on what became the Midland Railway’s (MR) main line between Ambergate and Manchester Central.
