On the main: Great Central

  • Summary

  • Today we talk with Malcolm Holmes, the General Manager of the Great Central Railway which is currently Britain's only double track mainline heritage railway, with over five miles  of working double track, period signalling, locomotives and rolling stock. It runs for eight  miles in total from the large market town of Loughborough to a new terminus just north of Leicester, plus as we will find out it even has a branch line!

    This second series of Up Front & Steaming is presented and produced by Tom Burgess in partnership with Trackside, the monthly magazine targeted at the 26,000 people who work in the heritage railway sector, plus the estimated 100,000 enthusiasts. www.tracksidemag.co.uk.
