Notes :
(1) Route confirmation required, above taken from ticket/pre-tour advertising. Seen on the Mildenhall branch, Stoke Ferry & East Rudham.
An advertising sheet seen by the Webmaster showed the motive power as a 4MT with
a J.15, although the latter had been crossed out. The sheet also stated that the
tour 'is being covered by Anglia Television' and that it was the 'last
opportunity to travel on the Mildenhall line - closing 18/06/1962'.
