Visitors steamed in for a taste of Humpty Dumpty's brew over the bank holiday weekend as part of a Rail 'n' Ale event in Wetheringsett.
Held at the Mid Suffolk Light Railway Museum, this year's annual event saw ales from across East Anglia being served up, from Humpty Dumpty Brewery, in Norfolk, to St Jude's Brewery, in Ipswich, Suffolk.

Families also got to climb aboard the museum's Victorian coaches and enjoy a ride on the Middy – the quarter-of-a-mile track from Brockford Station.

Keith Froom, museum chairman, said: "We were very pleased with how the weekend went and the rain held off for us. We had eight beers on offer, which all proved really popular with visitors."

The Mid Suffolk Light Railway ran for 50 years between Haughley and Laxfield. Museum bosses are inviting people to celebrate the centenary of the first passenger train to Felixstowe on September 14.

The celebrations will see Felixstowe being 'brought' to the museum, with a man-made beach, Punch and Judy, cinema and a visit from Stowmarket and Felixstowe town mayors.
