A rare open day at the One:One Collection in Margate — a huge, full-size railway museum hidden inside part of the old Hornby factory. They've only opened the doors to this privately owned collection twice in the last 6 years.
Inside the building are historic steam and diesel locomotives, unique rolling stock, engineering vehicles and pieces of railway history that simply don’t exist anywhere else. This museum-in-progress is being created by Locomotive Storage Ltd, who have restored and upgraded the vast factory space specifically to house these giants of British rail.
Hornby still work in the same building, and even put on a small exhibition of their models and brands for the occasion, giving the event a perfect link between the full-size railway and the miniature world we love.
