Great Central Railway - What still remains
Aside from the preserved double-track Great Central Railway and the preserved single-track Great Central Railway (North), passenger services still operate over the joint line between London Marylebone and Aylesbury and also between Marylebone and High Wycombe (continuing northwards to Princes Risborough, Bicester North, Banbury and Birmingham Snow Hill). The line north of Aylesbury still exists as far as Claydon L&NE Junction (the point at which the GCR passes the former Oxford - Cambridge line, but has a freight-only service, which consists of binliner and spoil trains going to the landfill site at Calvert.
Sections around Rotherham are open for Passenger and Freight traffic, indeed a new station was built there in the 1980s using the Great Central lines which were closer to the town centre than the former Midland Railway station.
Commuter EMU trains run from Hadfield to Manchester via Glossop. These are modern trains using 25kV overhead wires that were installed to replace the 1500V system.
Daily steel trains run from Sheffield to Deepcar where they feed the nearby Stocksbridge Steelworks owned by Corus Group.
