Walking Britain's Lost Railways S02E05 - Norfolk

Episode Overview

Rob Bell travels to Norfolk to trace a forgotten railway that winds through some of the most tranquil yet affluent areas of the country. Built in the 1880s, this railway was a late addition that aimed to propel the region into the industrial era. Rob delves into an engineering town that was created from nothing, discovers how agriculture in Norfolk was revolutionized, and visits the spots where countless holidaymakers from the Midlands came to enjoy the Norfolk Broads. As the railway played a significant role during wartime, Rob takes to the air to identify numerous hastily built airfields.
