The Ipswich - Lowestoft railway line will be 150 years old on June 1st, and ESTA's plans to make this anniversary are taking shape well.

We shall have displays and exhibitions at Saxmundham Museumn and three libraries up and down the line; there will be a special anniversary lunch at the Bell Hotel, Saxmundham on Saturday May 30th followed by the ESTA AGM and meeting with guest speakers in the Market Hall next door.

For our exhibitions, we have commissioned some special maps and are collecting photos and memorabilia on the line in the past and present.

If you have any pictures, handbills, old timetables or other items of interest, which you may be willing to loan for the displays, we should be pleased to hear from you. Please contact ESTA's Chairman, Trevor Garrod.
