Higher Buxton railway station was opened in 1894 to the south east of Buxton, Derbyshire, on the LNWR line to Ashbourne and the south. It utilised part of the Cromford and High Peak Railway (which ran from Whaley Bridge to Cromford), joining it at Hindlow and proceeding to a branch to Ashbourne at Parsley Hay On leaving the station, the line continued its climb across the thirteen arch Duke's Drive Viaduct on its way to Harpur Hill thence to Beswick's Sidings, where the gradient eased to 1 in 330 as far as Hindlow.

has abstract	Higher Buxton railway station was opened in 1894 to the south east of Buxton, Derbyshire, on the LNWR line to Ashbourne and the south. It utilised part of the Cromford and High Peak Railway (which ran from Whaley Bridge to Cromford), joining it at Hindlow and proceeding to a branch to Ashbourne at Parsley Hay On leaving its bay at Buxton LNWR station, the line turned through a tight 180-degree curve southwards across a thirteen-arch skew viaduct 87 feet (27 m) high over the Midland line and Spring Gardens, with an uphill gradient of 1 in 62. The station was located next to Clifton Road, and between it and Dale Road was an extensive goods yard which had been opened in 1891 as part of the scheme to link Buxton with High Peak Junction near Cromford. Like all the stations on the line the platforms and buildings were of timber construction. On leaving the station, the line continued its climb across the thirteen arch Duke's Drive Viaduct on its way to Harpur Hill thence to Beswick's Sidings, where the gradient eased to 1 in 330 as far as Hindlow. The station was never very busy, being close to the main station, and it closed in 1951. Passenger services on the line finished in 1954 but the now-single line remains open for mineral trains serving the lime works at Dowlow. (en)
