Before the rail network reopening in 1995, Mansfield was the biggest town in England to be without access to a railway service.
We have searched through our archives to find memories of Mansfield and Ashfield trains, showing the bridges and stations we have lost, along with memories of model railway exhibitions from years gone by.
Do you feature in any of these photos?
