The East Anglian Railway Museum was set to host a Steam Day this weekend (2nd August), which allows unlimited rides behind a steam locomotive and offers a chance to visit the museum.

However, the decision has been made to run this with diesel instead, due to the continued dry weather.

There is a high fire risk in the area, and Essex Fire Service has advised the decision to help keep everyone safe.

Further information, including the next Steam Day, can be found on their website.
