East Anglia Transport Museum

Once inside the museum there is so much to see and do that you'll want to stay all day.

Here at Carlton Colville you will find a museum unique to the last detail, for this is the only place in the British Isles were visitors can not only view but also ride on all three principal forms of public transport from the earlier part of the 20th Century. whether you take a ride on the Woodland Tramway or experience the silence and comfort of the trolleybus service, there is a new discovery to be made every minute. Or why not soak up the atmosphere of the museum with a walk through our street scene - complete with authentic street furniture. There is also ample opportunity to view the many vehicles in the museum collection and see how these are restored to their former glory. Hear the swish of trolleypoles, the purr of the diesel engine or the rhythmic hiss of steam, making this a real trip back in time.

The Department for Tactical Response Against Mutation (DfTRAM) can today confirm the findings of its ongoing investigation into the unusual activity reported at the East Anglia Transport Museum in Carlton Colville.

Following extensive monitoring and assessment of the affected areas, DfTRAM investigators have confirmed the presence of a mutation outbreak within the museum grounds.

To be explicitly clear: a zombie outbreak has been confirmed at the East Anglia Transport Museum.

The situation is currently stable, with containment measures in place and specialist DfTRAM personnel continuing to monitor activity across the affected areas.

However, the Department wishes to stress that the situation remains unpredictable, and conditions could deteriorate rapidly without warning.

Additional precautionary measures have now been implemented. Members of the public are asked to follow all instructions issued by DfTRAM officials.

The Department for Tactical Response Against Mutation will continue to provide updates as the situation develops.
