"Next train's gone..."
County School, North Elmham, Dereham, Norfolk, NR20 5LE
Our event's title "Next train's gone" is a line from the famous 1937 British comedy film 'Oh, Mr Porter', starring Will Hay. As you explore the station, don't expect to meet the stars of that film - but you can meet the present volunteer Stationmaster, and learn about lives lived on and around the railway. Incidentally, since closure by British Railways in 1964 this delightful station has been used a number of times for filming, notably in the guise of Gare de Nouvion in the BBC series 'Allo 'Allo!
Miniature passenger trains will be operating on the extended Wensum Valley Miniature Railway, adjacent to the station and occupying the westernmost section of the former Bure Valley line from County School to Wroxham.
