Today, the Mid-Norfolk Railway is pleased to announce that we are planning to reopen the line to Wymondham Abbey in time for our Diesel Gala weekend over the May bank holiday weekend.
The gala event will see an intensive timetable operate with our home fleet of Diesel locomotives as well as visiting locomotive from Rail Operations Group.
Over the last year and a half, much fundraising has taken place to enable this work to progress. We are thankful to everyone who donated to the Back on Track Appeal. There’s a special donor’s day on 1st June.
Since the old way beams and track were removed, the bridge has been inspected, cleaned and repainted in a protective coating, with the new way beams and track going in before the gala. In addition to the bridge works our Permanent Way team have also been undertaking considerable rail and sleeper replacement along this section.
Chairman James Oakley said “Whilst everyone has been frustrated with the time it has taken to reach this stage, we are all very excited to be returning to Wymondham for our Diesel gala event. We cannot thank everyone enough who has donated to the Back on Track appeal, all our volunteers, staff and contractors, who have worked so hard to get us to this stage”
Details of all our timetables and fares and those for the Diesel Gala, including advance discounted tickets and timetables, will be available shortly at mnr.org.uk/dieselgala2024









Traffic Jam 3D is a puzzle game that replicates the chaos of urban traffic congestion. The objective is to expertly maneuver the vehicles in order to flee the jam, resulting in a sense of excitement and enjoyment.
The female g spot is a sensitive area located inside the vagina, on the anterior wall, about 2–3 inches from the vaginal opening. It feels slightly spongy and may swell when aroused, contributing to heightened sexual pleasure.
The efforts of the volunteers and supporters really show how passionate everyone is about preserving railway heritage. It almost feels like Escape Road brought to life — navigating challenges and obstacles to reach the final destination.
Reading about all the bridge and track work really highlights how much goes into maintaining railways. If you’re inspired to do a home project of your own, Concrete Calculator is an excellent resource to estimate the materials you’ll need for patios, driveways, or other concrete projects.
The Diesel Gala sounds like a fantastic way to enjoy rail history! For some creative downtime, I highly recommend trying Sprunky Game. It’s a fun and interactive music-making experience that lets you mix beats and melodies—perfect for relaxing after a day of train spotting.
