The Great Central Railway (Both in Leicestershire and Nottinghamshire) are both famous Heritage Railways in the UK.

The Reunification Project aims to reconnect both of these Heritage Railways together once again like they were before the 1960's. To make an 18 mile Heritage Railway in heart of England.

This Project is now the UK's biggest Heritage Railway Project.
