Bressingham Steam and Gardens have elected to cancel its upcoming ‘Bressingham at Night’ event this Saturday, the 11th of November, as heavy rain has left parts of its Fen Railway and Waveney Railway underwater.

In order to run the event, it is vital that the water drain away to allow track inspections to take place to ensure that the trains can operate safely following the flooding.
