We were ably hosted by the Station Adoption Group who do a fantastic job keeping the station bright and tidy, and by the Station Building Heritage Day Centre who provided refreshments. The whole place is a great example of heritage and community rail at its best.

Today we visited Longmoor Primary School in Long Eaton to talk to their year 6s about careers on the railways. They got hands on with a dispatchers baton, donned hi-viz and were introduced to how all sorts of different roles contribute to the safe operation of our railways!
