Newly released images show the scale of the large industrial fire in Sutton Bonington.
Up to 13 fire crews were called to tackle a blaze involving buildings, trailers, timber and gas cylinders.
Thick smoke could be seen across a wide area, with a significant plume affecting nearby communities and even disrupting East Midlands rail services on the Nottingham – Leicester line.
Emergency services from Nottinghamshire, Leicestershire and Derbyshire are working together to contain the fire, which also caused loud bangs as cylinders ignited. Residents were advised to keep doors and windows closed due to the smoke, while crews remained on scene for several hours bringing the incident under control.
