Leighton Buzzard Narrow Gauge Railway celebrates beer festival success
Leighton Buzzard Narrow Gauge Railway is raising a glass to the success of its beer festival.
The festival, which took place on July 25 and 26, was just one event in a busy summer schedule for the attraction.
Visitors enjoyed a range of beers and ciders from breweries from Sussex, Surrey and Shropshire – as well as some closer to home.
There was also a pop-up bar hosted by the town’s Leighton Buzard Brewing Company at the Stonehenge Works Station.
A railway spokesperson said: “Many hours of hard work from our volunteers goes into putting on an event such as this. Over many months, we’re grateful for the investment in time that goes into the planning, organising and hosting of our beer festival.
"It was a delight over the two days to see so many visitors be able to enjoy the event in the unique setting of our engine shed.
"Buoyed by this year’s success, planning is already under way for next year’s event.”
The next big event is the Pirates Weekend on August 30 and 31.
And Bluey will be visiting on September 6.
A steam ban is currently in place due to the dry weather – but all services continue to run with diesel locos.
