Summary[edit]

Description
English: Detail of footbridge no 302a This footbridge was originally the Stowmarket station footbridge (No 280) built in 1900. This became redundant under the Anglia Electrification project in 1982. It was dismantled and brought to the railway by David Pinkerton. The bridge was subsequently refurbished and re-erected at Weybourne in 1990. At Stowmarket the bridge had a roof but this was not required and was discarded. Weybourne never had a footbridge and instead relied on a foot crossing. http://www.mandgn.co.uk/buildings_bridges.htm The main station building, built in 1900 and opened in 1901, is largely in its original form but the waiting room on Platform 1 is a replica of the original building which once stood here. The signal box came from Holt, the footbridge is 'imported' also. During WWII the station served the large Army camp that used to be on the site now occupied by the Muckleburgh collection. Weybourne station is famous as the location of the "Dad's Army" episode "Royal Train".
