Summary[edit]

Description
English: Bridge No 11A near Swarkestone, Derbyshire Trent and Mersey Canal. This bridge used to carry the Derby to Ashby branch line of the Midland Railway Company. The line opened between 1868 and 1874 and in 1923, it became part of the Midland Division of the London, Midland and Scottish Railway. In 1930, passenger services were withdrawn, and the line became freight only until being taken out of use in 1973. During the Second World War, the line was taken over by the War Department and used as a railway training centre. The line has been converted by Sustrans into a footpath and cycle track (National Cycle Route No 6 - London to Keswick).
