The Nikhe Railway (/ˈnɪxɛər/) (Or Nikhé Railway) is a proposed light railway that will run from Aldenham[1] (and Broadfields[2]) to Mill Hill East. It will create a shuttle link with the London Underground (Northern Line) and Thameslink[3], which would simultaneously put less pressure on both currently existing rapid transit networks.
The Nikhe Railway will be an indirect successor of the Edgware, Highgate and London Railway[4], and will attempt to complete the Northern Heights Project, a failed railway project that would have introduced a railway going from Edgware to Bushey Heath, via Brockley Hill and Elstree, as well as a railway going from Edgware to Mill Hill East, via Mill Hill.
Appearance & Accessibility
editTrains on the Nikhe Railway (N-01 Class) will look similar to the trains on the Docklands Light Railway[5], which is a light railway in East London[6]. However, there are some noticeable differences, including:
- N-01 Trains will be painted white, with a thick blue stripe at the bottom.
- N-01 Trains will be much closer to the ground, and will have track across roads.
- DLR Trains have separated carriages, however the N-01 Trains will have joined carriages, similarly to the Elizabeth Line[7] Trains, or most intercity trains privatised under National Rail, for example, Thameslink.
Stations that are exclusively owned by the Nikhe Railway will have full step-free access from street to train, such as Edgwarebury Station and Aldenham Station.

The Nikhe Railway has four termini:
- Edgware (On platform 5, Nikhe Trains will terminate at Edgware, then run on a route back to either Broadfields, Aldenham or Mill Hill East.)
- Aldenham
- Mill Hill East
- Broadfields
The Edgware-Mill Hill East Link serves the purpose of a shuttle to link the east and west Northern Line branches, as well as the Thameslink (Midland Main Line).
