UK Railtours excursion from London St. Pancras to Cleethorpes passing Mansfield Woodhouse station, Nottinghamshire, on 7th May 2016. This line and station were closed as part of the Beeching cuts in 1964, rendering Mansfield as 'the largest town in England without a station' for many years. Reopening as far as Mansfield came in 1995 and was extended to Worksop, which saw Mansfield Woodhouse reopened, in 1998. Should never have closed in the first place - like many other lines in the UK.
