With the easing of covid restrictions, and the weather turning sunny and warm, people were only too eager to have a day out at the seaside and this view shows a substantial crowd alighting from 321309 at Frinton-on-Sea on 1st June 2021. This station was opened as Frinton by the Tendring Hundred Railway, subsidiary of the GER who acquired the line in 1893, with the extension of the line from Kirby Cross to Walton-on-Naze on 17th May 1867. It was renamed Frinton-on-Sea in May 2007 to better reflect the name of this rather affluent seaside and residential town.
