Summary edit

Description
English: This way to North Walsham And to Cromer and Sheringham beyond. At left the signal box can be seen; it is located in one of the adjoining Station Cottages' garden.

The former signal box is located in one of the adjoining Station Cottages' gardens.

The line connecting the city of Norwich with North Walsham was opened in 1874 by the East Norfolk Railway and it reached the seaside town of Cromer by 1877, becoming a part of the Great Eastern Railway. The final section of the present line, between Cromer and Sheringham, opened in 1887 and is the only remaining section of the Midland and Great Northern Joint Railway, part of which is preserved as a heritage railway, between the coastal town of Sheringham and Holt. Passenger services at the time of this photo were operated by 'ONE Railway' which was part of the National Rail network, operated by National Express East Anglia and using Class 150, Class 153, Class 156 or Class 170 diesel multiple units. The line is named after the Bittern (a member of the Heron family), a rare bird which can still be found in Norfolk's wetlands.
