A DMU railtour carefully picks its way along the branch to Norwich Victoria coal depot late on a Saturday afternoon in October 1980. The passengers had previously been treated to a run up to Great Ryburgh and back via Dereham. Originally a passenger terminus, Norwich Victoria station closed in 1916, but the branch lingered on for goods, and latterly coal, until 1986. Predictably perhaps, the site of the coal depot now lies under a Sainsburys supermarket.
