New signs have appeared at railway stations on the Wherry Line advertising Broads National Park .
The initiative between the Wherry Lines Community Rail Partnership and the Broads Authority has seen fresh signage installed at stations in Great Yarmouth, Brundall Gardens, Brundall, Cantley, Reedham, Haddiscoe, Somerleyton, Lingwood and Acle.
Martin Halliday, community rail development officer at Community Rail Norfolk, said: “We are delighted to have extended our signage project along the Wherry Lines to include Great Yarmouth. The Wherry Lines Community Rail Partnership were keen to create one uniform brand, with distinct signage that promotes a sense of identity.

A piece of railway history has returned to Lowestoft with a new sign installed at Coke Ovens Junction, half a mile to the west of the town’s railway station.
The name of the junction disappeared in 1970 when the Lowestoft to Great Yarmouth line closed.
Although Coke Ovens Junction pre-dated the opening of the direct Yarmouth route in 1903, having initially served as the point where the railway had numerous coke ovens, the name had survived for more than 100 years.
