Currently closed as part of The Silk Mill redevelopment project, due to be completed in 2020.

Our iconic model railway represents the Derbyshire landscape during the heyday of the Midland Railway. Containing meticulously researched and constructed models of buildings and infrastructure from the actual Midland Railway network, the model railway is a testament to the on-going  hard work of our volunteers. Currently in the process of being prepared for a major renovation, the model railway is now closed as it is being carefully packed and moved to a temporary home where it will continue to be developed by volunteers. It will return to its new home in the Derby Silk Mill Museum of Making in 2020.
