Trivia: where are the highest rail summits in England?

[Lewis Acott]

Hi All
How does Bibbington Summit (1180ft) between Dove Holes and Buxton rank in the listings for highest in England?

 

[AJM580]

Highest point in England is Ais Gill summit at 356 m (1,169 ft). Bibbington summit is slightly lower being listed in official route diagrams as 347 m (1,140 ft). Highest in the UK is on the Highland main line at Druimachdar which is 452 m or 1480 ft.

Highest in Somerset is Crowcombe station on the WSR at 126m above sea level.

Whistle Inn Halt, on the Pontypool and Blaenavon Railway, is 398m (1307 feet), and claims the title of the highest point on preserved standard-gauge line in the United Kingdom, not just England and Wales. If their proposed northern extension ever happens, summit at Waunafon would be about 430m=1400 feet.

I keep wondering what (if anything) - apart from the Snowdon Mountain Railway - goes higher in England and Wales.

The utlimate trivial summit is surely to be found in Norfolk? I'm sure someone knows!

Indeed, hence my challenge to find the highest point of the flatness. Someone in Network Rail?
