Hey,

Just wanted to say this is definitely worth a visit if you're in the area or finding yourself asking the question "what's to do in norfolk?" want to have a ride on a working 10" gauge steam engine, both the towns it runs between have plenty to go and look at as well.

If you actually live round here i hear they are looking for volunteers too.

I agree..Also North Norfolk rlwy at Sheringham.
Mid Norfolk at Dereham and Bure Valley .Wells..
Last one is operated by the Scottish owner with a sense of humour and a special way with whistles in the short tunnel!

Motorcycle Museum at North Walsham is well worth a visit too.

Great collection of full size steam engines at Thursford which is close to the above mentioned attractions.

Also don't forget the Forncett Steam Museum in South Norfolk: http://www.forncettsteammuseum.co.uk/ (The website says a new site is coming soon.)

It's actually owned by the same family as the Wells & Walsingham – they must have steam in the blood!

The annual Model Engineers' Day at Forncett comes up on 2nd October. It got some good reviews on here last year.

(OK, I admit it, I organise Model Engineers' Day. Full details and invitations coming soon. Please note the date.)

All the best,

Bill.
