Heritage
The Poppy Line
The North Norfolk Railway occupies a section of the former Midland & Great Northern Joint Railway (M&GN), which was once a vital link for the region's agriculture and tourism. Its nicknamed "The Poppy Line" because of the wildflowers that once blanketed the embankments. Today, it is a living history experience, featuring meticulously restored stations and a world-class collection of steam engines that offer a nostalgic window into the golden era of the English seaside holiday.
