I decided to take a trip on this because I had seen the line on Google Maps and I had wondered why there were no national rail stations there. I paid online for an all day ticket, but found that stopping at Weybourne and Holt on two steam trains was quite enough to get my moneys worth. I got loads... More

This attraction is reasonably priced, with the ability to get on and off the train wherever you like. The countryside is stunning, the volunteer staff are keen, professional and smiling ! If you like walking, try getting off at Weybourne and walking around Sheringham Park, which is fabulous, especially when the Rhodedendrons are in bloom. Check timetables if you really... More

The scenery from the line is beautiful. Parking was a little limited at Sheringham, but next time I shall go by train.

We bought rover tickets so we could travel as much as we liked. Volunteers all looked happy even when their lunch hadnt arrived! The trip on the train brought back so many happy memories for those of us who could remember and for those who it was a first it was also really enjoyable. Well worth the money but if... More

When I was young I went to school in Cromer which was 20 miles away from my home.So I was taken to Melton Constable to catch the steam train to Cromer everyday via Holt Station Sheringham then Cromer I was very privileged and have always adored steam they are a totally fascination and so worth a trip just so memorable

Having been on the train before we booked Sunday lunch with two friends. Everything was just right, table décor classy (condiments in paper sachets in an eggcup as previously experienced...) The food was delicious, the service courteous and prompt, nothing was too much trouble. On the return trip the chef walked amongst the diners to see if all was ok,... More

The North Norfolk Railway runs for 5.5 miles from Sheringham to Holt, passing through some of the most spectacular backdrops you can find. From beaches and bays to woodlands and vast open fields, (spot the odd restored windmill in the distance) not forgetting the wildlife along the way. Much has already been said about NNR but it is worth repeating... More

Went on the train with a group of 4 adults and 9 children. Everybody loved the train ride and we could even eat our packed lunch on it! Staff were really helpful and friendly and all the children loved standing in the engine and meeting the driver. Very well kept and interesting piece of history!

We've been visiting the North Norfolk Railway since the very start, and have seen it grow and grow (and even remember the line from before the Beeching cuts!) Its an excellent line, with well-maintained locos and rolling stock, a beautifully scenic route and plenty to see at the well-maintained station halts. Good toilet facilities, a very good railway-themed shop, and... More
