Description

There’s never been anything quite like it! In September 1993 East Midlands Freight staged one of the most successful open days ever seen.

As well as capturing the excitement of the day’s events this officially commissioned video takes an exclusive look at the loco movements on and around the site at Worksop before the actual day.
