Reepham railway station (Norfolk)
Reepham (Norfolk) was a railway station in Reepham, Norfolk. It was opened in 1882 and closed to passengers in 1952; it finally shut to goods services in 1981. The tracks through Reepham remained in place until 1985, latterly serving a concrete factory in Lenwade. The trackbed is preserved as part of the Marriott's Way long-distance footpath between Aylsham and Norwich.
Future operations
A speculative plan to create a heritage railway between Reepham station and Whitwell station has been proposed by the owner of the latter station, which is being developed as a railway centre. This would include relaying the Themelthorpe Curve, built to link the former Great Eastern Railway and Midland and Great Northern Joint Railway routes; it was formerly the tightest radius curve on the British Rail network.
