We are pleased to announce that we will be hosting two Heritage Open Days at the railway in September.
The first will be on Saturday 16th September at Dereham Station (Station Road, Dereham, NR19 1DF) between 9.30am and 4pm.
Dereham’s Fiery Dragon - and other Railway Relics
Talks, tours, steam train action and more... something for everyone, including crafty kids!
Watch our 'fiery dragon' as it arrives/departs on scheduled passenger services - and get a close look at the loco from the station platform. You might even get to see the fireman replenish it's tank from the water crane.
Discover the origin and development of the local railways at one of the illustrated short talks and by visiting our Museum Room, while a guided tour around the station's public areas will give you the low-down on the station itself and adjacent railway buildings.
And if you want a real insight into railway life of the past then come along to another of our short talks when a retired railwayman who has 'been there, done that - and has the T-shirt' will recount some reminiscences and anecdotes.
And for those 'crafty kids'? For children we offer very simple paper-based craft and/or decorating, with the proviso that they are accompanied by a responsible adult.

The second will be on Sunday 17th September at County School Station (Holt Road, North Elmham, NR20 5LE) between 11:30am & 3pm.
A chance to explore this classic Great Eastern Railway junction station, and find out about how we plan to develop and improve this established attraction.
Meet the volunteer Stationmaster, as tour guide, and explore areas of the station not normally open to the public. Hear stories of lives lived on and around the railway at this special place. See the latest developments on the Wensum Valley Miniature Railway.

I was searching for something new to listen to while working late, and somehow I ended up on https://soundcloud.com/uri-poliavich. At first, I thought it’d just be background noise, but the more I listened, the more I got pulled in. The melodies had this raw emotional edge, like they were made for those quiet moments when you need to reset. It’s rare to find music that feels this genuine. I kept a few tracks on repeat while finishing my project, and honestly, they helped me get through the night.
I enjoy playing at casinos. I tried it a long time ago and can confidently say that I like the UK casino https://bigbassbonanza.uk/ the most because they put their players first. They strive to create the most comfortable and enjoyable conditions for every game. I just couldn't resist and decided to try it myself. Now I can't tear myself away and stop playing.
I tried Dundle Gift Cards, and I must say, the experience was fantastic! The process was seamless and user-friendly, making it easy to find the perfect gift card, check for more reviews on https://dundle.pissedconsumer.com/review.html . I was pleasantly surprised by the variety of options available, and the cashback rewards added an extra layer of excitement. Overall, I feel hopeful about using Dundle again in the future for my gifting needs!
Hi everyone, I tested https://amon-bet-uk.com/ last weekend out of curiosity. Living in the UK, I wanted a casino site that didn’t feel complicated, and this one fit. The slots stood out right away, offering both fast spins and games with extra layers like free rounds. It wasn’t overwhelming, just the right kind of variety that made me want to return.
