Museum of East Anglian Life Driver Training Course

[Steam Scenes]

I have been asked to post the following information:

"The Museum of East Anglian Life (MEAL), Stowmarket are working with local engine owners to run their 7th Driver Training Course at the Museum on the 8th and 9th August 2009 as part of the Museum’s “Steam and Crafts” weekend. The course is for adults over 21 years old who hold a full driving licence.



The aim of the weekend is to give training in the working of all variants of road steam engines and the opportunity to acquire the basic skills of driving, along with the responsibilities associated with engine management.

There will be a nominal cost of £155 for the weekend. This is to cover the costs of coal, engine owner’s minimal expenses, course training notes, and a certificate of attendance. A special voucher can also be supplied in advance if you would like to use this as a gift – just let us know.

On the Saturday evening we hope to hold a social event at the Museum. The evening will be a ticketed event but will be open to everyone involved with the Museums Steam and Traditional Crafts event along with their families, etc.

If you would like to book your place on this event please contact Lisa Harris at the Museum for a booking form on 01449 612229 or lisa.harris@eastanglianlife.org.uk

The museum is open from 22 March to 31 October 10-5 Mon-Sat 11-5 Sun.
