Advance tickets available.

Looks like a great event, Dereham Beer Festival and Tank engines (and autocoach), unfortunately I'll be abroad.

 

On Friday 26th August, guest Pannier 6430 and Autocoach W167 will operate three pre-bookable return trips from Dereham to Wymondham Abbey Halt - the first time (as far as we know) that a GWR push and pull Autotrain has ever operated in Norfolk.
The £20 return fare on your specified service also allows travel on other gala service trains that day.
On the Saturday, Sunday & Monday, Rover tickets will include a trip on the Autocoach from Dereham to Hoe & return, but please be aware that you may have to queue to wait for a train due to the limited numbers able to travel on each trip.
Autocoach bookings for Friday 26th August can be made here: http://tickets.mnr.org.uk/index.php?route=product/product&path=59_83&product_id=235
