Bressingham Steam Museum, Bressingham near Diss, in Norfolk, has a fine collection of steam powered vehicles and trains, most in working condition. This 1924 Garret Steam Tractor was the one operating on the day I visited so I chose it for the waymark.

The information plaque on the engine's 'stall' provides the history of the machine. A real beauty of a steam engine!

Bressingham Steam Museum is on the A1066 just west of Diss. There is an admission charge. The website is www.bressingham.co.uk
