Mangapps Railway Museum is a privately owned working railway and museum established on a farm at Burnham on Crouch, Essex. It features a ¾ mile standard gauge passenger carrying line, with restored stations, signal boxes and ancillary equipment removed from various sites throughout East Anglia and beyond. To operate the line the Railway has 18 steam and diesel locomotives and over 80 carriages and wagons, some of considerable historic and technical interest. To complement the working Railway, the Museum has a collection of smaller railway relics which is one of the largest of its kind in Britain. This collection contains historic items connected with every aspect of railway operation and has a particular bias towards the railways of East Anglia and Railway signalling - in fact the signalling collection is believed to be the largest on public display in Britain.

The Manx Electric Railway takes you on a journey along the East Coast of the Isle of Man. The journey lasts around 1 hour and 15 minutes as you travel from Derby Castle Terminus located in the Islands capital Douglas via Laxey to Ramsey Station in the north. On your journey you pass through scenic wooded Glens, picturesque villages and along the cliff tops with dramatic coastal scenery. The Tramway still uses its original Victorian and Edwardian Rolling stock including Tram Car 1 which has been in service since the line opened in 1893!

The railway has its headquarters in Dereham and runs south to Wymondham Abbey Halt station. Currently the line is also being restored north of Dereham towards North Elmham and County School stations. The Mid-Norfolk Railway is owned and run by the registered charity, The Mid-Norfolk Railway Preservation Trust. The Trust is owned by the railway’s members, some of whom volunteer their time and varied skills to the railway.

The ‘Middy’, a fine example of rural English history, is now resurrected as Suffolk’s only standard gauge railway museum and ironically is busier now than it ever was. A section of the railway at Brockford has been recreated with original station buildings which capture the atmosphere of this quirky line. In 2012 the MSLR was awarded the Heritage Railway Association’s Interpretation Award. In October 2014 the ‘Middy’ was voted Suffolk Museum of the Year in competition with 40 other Suffolk museums. Today’s ‘Middy’ is not only a museum but runs regular steam trains and has a programme of carriage and wagon restoration complementing its efforts to recreate this slice of Edwardian England.

Train rides are the highlight of any visit! Trains run from Moor Road to Park Halt and back again, taking around 25 minutes. You are welcome to get off at Park Halt to visit Middleton Park, and return on a later train. Return tickets are normally valid all day, so you can have more than one ride if you wish, provided that we have spare capacity on the train.
