New Year’s Day Steam & Light Festival

When: January 1, 2022 to December 1, 2022 Time: 10:00am to 4:00pm Venue: Mid-Suffolk Light Railway Address: Brockford Station Wetheringsett Suffolk IP14 5PW Suitable for: All ages

A bright start to the new year will be the Steam & Light Festival at Suffolk’s only standard gauge preserved railway. Join MSLR on January 1st for your first steam train ride of the year and visit to the Historical Lighting Association’s display of fascinating vintage oil lamps dating from the Mid-Victorian era and as seen everywhere from grand houses to practical work places.

During the day you will be able to ride the trains as often as you like and the genuine Great Eastern Railway Victorian four-wheeler coaches are a historical experience for any passengers. And a special guest loco 99 year old ‘Marcia’ will be on duty topping and tailing passenger trains with one of the diesel engines.
