Mid Norfolk Railway 1997-1998

An unedited view of the early days of development at the Mid Norfolk Railway in the late 90's. Some great characters and events have helped shape this railway. On this video you will see many of the volunteers who have spent countless hours on the railway, there is the first steam locomotive in operation on the line since reopening the Sir Berkeley and the local residents getting used to a railway crossing in operation again!!

I remember visiting the station in 1995 before any track was there. Later track panels were stacked up and i believe the Army engineers helped lay it. I drove for Somerfield Supermarkets at the time, they had a Store opposite the Station and i would walk over and have a look after making a delivery. I still have some photos i took at the time. Fantastic Railway now. Have travelled on it a few times on Diesel Galas.

Just like today, road users unfortunately still ignore the 'keep clear' markings and signage at the open crossings.
