Beccles
In December 2012, a passing loop was brought into use at Beccles on the East Suffolk line to allow up and down trains to occupy the section between Oulton Broad and Halesworth at the same time. Previously, this had not been possible since 1985 when the section was singled. The loop has permitted the service between Saxmundham and Lowestoft (and vice versa) to become hourly instead of two hourly, a major improvement for regular users. Shown here are Lowestoft and Ipswich services crossing at Beccles on 8th July 2013.
