Nickey Line Railway Path

Highlight • Cycleway

Until 1959, the Nickey Line transported passengers from between Luton and Hemel Hempstead. The 9-mile (14 km) stretch is now a lovely cycle path through peaceful countryside. It's thought that the name could come from the slang term "down the nick" which engine drivers would use when the engine ran out of steam.
