Foundryman Ron Johnson sounded shift finish hooter at the Swindon Railworks for the final time on 26 March 1986, as hundreds lost their jobs when the site closed.
Johnson, 75, will sound the hooter again at 16:30 GMT following a day of events, including the opening of a new exhibition, at the Steam Museum in the town to mark the day.
Johnson said that sounding the hooter was "not just a job" and that the closure had been a "really sad day".
