East Anglia Transport Museum

East Anglia Transport Museum is an open-air transport museum in Carlton Colville, about three miles south-west of Lowestoft, where trams, trolleybuses and a narrow-gauge railway bring industrial heritage back to life. Dogs on leads are very welcome across the site and can ride aboard the historic vehicles, so you and your four-legged passenger can both enjoy the rattling, clanging atmosphere of bygone transport without leaving them tied outside. Access is straightforward: turn up, pay at the ticket office and explore.

Dogs can join you on the vehicles with a bit of consideration for other passengers—perfect for pups who don't mind a gentle sway and the occasional screech of brakes. The café and shop remain off-limits to dogs, but there's plenty to see in the open air, from vintage trams to steam-hauled railway rides.

It's a proper day out for transport enthusiasts and their dogs, especially if you're after something a bit different near the Suffolk coast. Keep them on a lead, mind the tracks and let them soak up the smells of oil, metal and history.
