Mid-Norfolk Railway
Mid-Norfolk Railway
Rural heritage railway in the heart of Norfolk
This heritage railway takes passengers on an eleven mile trip through unspoilt Norfolk countryside, passing well-preserved signal boxes and pretty village stations. Mid-Norfolk Railway runs heritage diesel trains and there are regular visits from guest steam trains.
Dereham station is a fine example of a mid-Victorian station and has been restored to the 1950s period. When trains are running the station itself is also open for visits. Entry is free and there are several display cases with artefacts and local photographs. The small museum is open on Wednesdays only.
Trains run between Dereham and Wymondham Abbey Stations and you can build a trip to one or both of these historic market towns into your day.
