title Camping with Trains, Yaxham, Norfolk - 29th August 2010 intro It's another outing for The Van, this time to the village of Yaxham near Dereham in Norfolk. The nearby Mid-Norfolk Railway happens to run right alongside the edge of the site, so there's a bit of a train thing going on, especially as we take a trip from Dereham to Wymondham Abbey and back courtesy of a steam train and some 80s rolling stock. imgp4602 Isobel and Nosher in the van imgp4612 There's a "thank you" in magnetic letters imgp4613 Nosher plays some guitar imgp4620 Over at Taptu, Brett has overloaded a waffle iron imgp4623 Brett desperately tries to rescue the waffle iron imgp4626 Brett drops waffle on the floor imgp4627 James's waffle iron is working again imgp4628 Brett has another go in the Taptu kitchen imgp4629 Fred lounges about in the "extension" imgp4631 Isobel looks at Fred imgp4636 Walking around the campsite imgp4637 Euro tents imgp4640 Fred and Isobel down by the lakes imgp4643 Fred looks at chickens imgp4648 Fred's up late getting a bit of a fling-around imgp4651 In Yaxham, there's a yard full of old bits of engine imgp4653 A Kerr Stuart "Joffre" steam engine, number 3010 imgp4655 A traction engine imgp4657 Isobel looks at a fork-lift imgp4661 Various traction engines imgp4665 Inside an old steam-engine boiler imgp4668 Yaxham Station imgp4669 A level crossing at Yaxham imgp4671 Some LNER signalling equipment imgp4673 A derelict 1940s building, Yaxham imgp4681 Hawksworth Pannier 9466 trundles past the campsite imgp4687 Mark 1 coaches go past imgp4688 Fred and Isobel imgp4689 A funky Yurt imgp4690 Fred and Isobel in classic 80s rolling stock imgp4697 A pair of tickets imgp4701 Old advertising on a station toilet block imgp4705 Steam and smoke blow through the trees imgp4708 1980s train vestibule.
