Summary
| Description |
English: Melton Constable Station, train and East Signalbox. View eastwards, towards Great Yarmouth (ahead) and Norwich (right). The Class B12/3 4-6-0 taking water is the 13.11 Peterborough to Yarmouth Beach. Melton Constable was the centre of the former Midland & Great Northern (M&GN) system, which extended from Saxby, Bourne, Spalding, Peterborough and Kings Lynn in the west to Sheringham and Cromer, Yarmouth and Norwich in the east. As the system largely duplicated others lines and carried little traffic, it was closed almost entirely as early as 2/3/59 (four months after this photograph), except for a service between here and Sheringham that continued until 6/4/64 (28/12/64 for freight), after which all the considerable railway facilities at Melton Constable disappeared almost without trace. |
