Abandoned Lines and Stations
28th January 2008

A miscellaneous selection of photos of disused stations and lines throughout East Anglia. Some of these shots were taken 30 years ago. A lot has changed in that time. Some of the stations no longer exist having disappeared under housing estates and roads. References used, Forgotten Railways ( East Anglia ) R.S. Joby. A Regional History Of the Railways of Great Britain Vol.5 by Don Gordon. Many thanks to the following who have helped with photos or information. Robert Bull, Peter Heath, Steve Parker, Roger Sutcliffe.
