19:0pm Bressington steam railway
One of my treasured books from school days was Alan Bloom's book all about Bressingham; I've bookmarked this to watch - thanks for the alert. No "spoilers" here - I may post further afterwards.
Enjoyed the show ... though I felt a slight sadness of former glory painted, it has to be said, though Alan Bloom's book. I recall it from the days of Oliver Cromwell coming there days after she pulled the last
BR▸ steam special in 1968, and last night's show was a bit of a shocker showing the scramble to get even a single standard gauge locomotive into steam for a special day.
I visited once - in passing, with family on our way to Norwich by road. Thinking about that, it must have been a few years BL (Before Lisa), so with my previous wife and it would have been with kids in tow. As the only one of the group of 4 with interest in the traction engines and railways, and with the visit being on a typical rather than "feature" day, the visit was not a long one and featured the nursery strongly in our itinerary.
Perhaps a place to go back to next year? Plans to rove around this year have been kiboshed ... next year's list is open.
Edit - a correction of a memory
