The Mountsorrel Railway was a network of industrial railway lines that served the granite quarries which dominate the Leicestershire village of Mountsorrel. == History ==
As early as 1860 there were eight and a half miles of track serving the local quarries of the Mountsorrel Granite Company, now owned by Lafarge Aggregates. The line ran from the Great Central Railway at Swithland Sidings, around the quarries, over the Grand Union Canal at Mountsorrel, to the Midland Main Line at Barrow-upon-Soar.〔http://www.birstall.free-online.co.uk/Mountsorrel/mp19.html Memories of Mountsorrel Railway, Mountsorrel Post, June 2007〕 The line fell out of use in the 1950s, the track was taken up in the 1960s, and most of the route was abandoned.
