Great memories of taking my son Mathew along these lines for days out when he was growing up.

Thanks for a great video, with interesting commentary. I live in Brazil now, but I will try and visit there next time I am over.

[@inconyblue]

TY for that. there is still hope for Dereham to Lynn..:)

[@magiccat4316]

Incony Blue I don’t think so. The line out of Dereham is now the main road. Sorry.

What has happened to the union of south Africa loco is it still running

[@nbc_uk]

The locomotive was at York when the Covid-19 lockdown started. It has been confirmed, though, that it will spend it's final operating year on the East Lancs Railway once it is able to move there.

[@Gaizhun]

Which part of the line will never see a train again?

[@nbc_uk]

The former section through Fakenham, which no longer exists in any form.

[@Gaizhun]

@@nbc_uk Ah ok. Would it be possible for the wells and Walsingham railway to extend north to a new site in Fakenham?

[@nbc_uk]

@@Gaizhun , technically the WWLR could extend south to Fakenhamn either stopping at the edge of the town, or creating a new formation around the edge. However, it is very unlikely that they would do so due to the costs (including a new tunnel in Walsingham), the possible need to change to a wider gauge for the longer run and the open hostility to any rail revival projects from senior transport planning officers in Norfolk County Council.

[@Gaizhun]

@@nbc_uk Ok thanks for the info :) Excellent video by the way.
