6–8th September  Steam Gala
Not the usual climax to the season as previous years, due to the success of the Jubilee Week and Steam Dream events, but the Gala was still a chance to see the B12 and J15 (together and in steam). The 3 day event saw the running of all the railway's available motive power including, B12 61572, J15 65462, 57xx 9682, J94 8009, 1982 Ring Haw and not forgetting 4015 Karel or 'The Polish Beast'!

31st August  Steam Dream

After 40 years of dreaming it finally came true on 31st August 2002, when the long awaited and much over due Steam Dream took place. The M&GN Society's B12 and J15 were running trains throughout the day, climaxing in a double header of the two locomotives in the afternoon. Also running was Class 31 5580.

1–9th June  Jubilee Week
One of the highlights of 2002 was the Jubilee Celebrations in June. This saw, for the first time in preservation B12 61572 and B1 61264 running together in BR livery's. Unfortunately due to pressing engagements 61264 was only at the railway for one week, hopefully it will be back soon! J15 65462 was also due to run at this event, making 3 ex-LNER classes, but because of delays in the final stages of restoration it missed this event. Also featured in this event was another once locally shedded locomotive Class 31 5580, which like 61572 was formerly shedded at 32A (Norwich Thorpe).
