The Robin Hood line

The Robin Hood line is a major success story in rail travel. It was originally opened as a result of a jointly funded scheme by Nottinghamshire County Council, Derbyshire County Council and Nottingham City Council with assistance from the Strategic Rail Authority.

The line is now being operated on a commercial basis by East Midlands Trains and provides a link between Worksop in the north of the county and Nottingham in the south via Mansfield. Timetable information is available on the East Midlands Trains web site.

In addition to being an important commuter service, used by over 3,500 people a day, the line also offers access to a number of attractions in Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire.
