Wells & Walsingham Light Railway - taking on water
The Wells and Walsingham Light Railway was constructed by Lt. Cmdr. Roy Francis after having already built the mile long 10¼" gauge Beach railway at Wells. In 1979 he started to construct the WWLR on the four miles of old Great Eastern track bed from Wells to Walsingham, making this the longest 10¼" narrow gauge steam railway in the world. Trains are now being hauled by the unique 2-6-0 + 0-6-2 Garratt locomotive "Norfolk Hero' which was designed especially for service on this line.
