Home to one of the earliest railways in the country, the Leicester & Swannington, Leicestershire was for many years almost a private fiefdom of the Midland Railway, though later other companies made inroads. This was an area rich in mineral wealth with both coal and iron ore deposits providing much freight traffic. Today, the GC and the GN & LNWR joint lines have been completely closed, although a section of the former survives as the preserved Great Central, based at Loughborough.
