Mid-Norfolk Railway makes urgent appeal for funds
Need for bridge and track repairs temporarily curtails public services.
THE Mid-Norfolk Railway has launched an emergency appeal, known as the ‘Back on Track’ emergency appeal, to help fund the restoration of Crownthorpe bridge and associated works to reopen the railway for train services.
The appeal is designed to raise £95,000 and will, together with money already committed by the railway, meet the costs of a staged reopening. Initially it is planned that trains will be run to Thuxton.
