Midland Railway (Settle to Carlisle Line)

A historic, brilliantly engineered and visually stunning railway, the Settle–Carlisle Line cuts across the Pennines from Settle in Yorkshire to Carlisle.

This guide highlights suggested cycle routes alongside the line, along with some of the best locations for watching trains tackle its dramatic landscapes.

It also explores several associated routes that are now disused or preserved in part, including the Ingleton Branch Line between Lowgill and Giggleswick, sections of the former Stainmore Line, and the heritage Eden Valley Railway.

Why not cycle the length of this historic route from Carlisle, then hop on a train back to Citadel Station from any point along the way?
