Dronfield station is located part way along the Midland Main Line's long and unremitting uphill gradient from Chesterfield to Sheffield.

Another station part way along a "Long Drag" on one of the former Midland Railway's main lines is Horton-in-Ribblesdale.

In early 2016, Lazonby & Kirkoswald became the temporary northern terminus of the S&C line following a landslip affecting the route towards Carlisle.

Another station which was a temporary terminus of a severed main line (following collapse of the Penmanshiel Tunnel in 1979) is Berwick-upon-Tweed.
