Three years ago today we were ramping up towards our 2023 event, by holding a pre-event photo shoot to give a taste of the madness of the weekend that followed.
This was the first time a protest against Beeching's railway cuts had never been re-created at a hertiage railway, and we were the first to bring these to the preservation scene three years ago today.
The protests became a staple of the event in following years, they brought to life a harsh reality faced my many railwaymen who faced losing their jobs and livelihoods.
