The North Norfolk Railway (Poppy Line) :: Shared Description

The North Norfolk Railway (NNR), also known as the "Poppy Line", is a heritage steam railway. The line, which once formed part of the Midland and Great Northern Joint Railway, is just over 5 miles long and runs between the coastal town of Sheringham and the terminus at Holt. There are two stops between Sheringham and Holt, Weybourne and Kelling Heath. The original line opened in 1887 and closed in 1964; work on rebuilding the line started in 1965, and on 4 June 1967, two steam locomotives were delivered.

The NNR operates both steam and diesel-hauled services, and organises a programme of seasonal special events.
