Open Day at Blythburgh Station

Railway Open Day

Free entry to site, free tea, coffee and cake. Our demonstration goods train will be ‘hauled through the power of the sun’: the 88-year-old battery-electric locomotive is now charged by solar panels. For the first time – shunting demonstration – “how the railway moved the goods”. Re-instated main line track, platform, and goods sidings. Narrow gauge goods wagons. Award-winning restored
original Goods Shed. Heritage railway display, refreshments, railway book sale, and films in the Village Hall. Enlarged live steam model railway. Display of found artefacts.

See our progress in the unearthing and restoration of this unique and historic 1879 narrow gauge station.
