SCRCA Location Type: Milepost

Location Type Code
MP

Section 94 of the Railways' Clauses Act of 1845 requires that the length of all railway lines be measured and that markers of some kind be installed at quarter-mile intervals to denote these measured distances. The mileposts within the SCRCA identify the distance in rail-miles from London St. Pancras via the Midland Railway Company's most direct route. For more information, please refer to the related article "Settle-Carlisle Railway Mileposts".
