Sheringham railway station

At the time of opening, the railway itself was listed for closure; the basic timber platform provided was intended to cover only the last months of the line's operation.

[1] With the pending introduction of longer Stadler FLIRT Class 755 units by Abellio Greater Anglia, the temporary station platform was finally scheduled to be replaced.

[6] Between 2007 and 2010, work was undertaken to reinstate the original level crossing across the road to allow trains from Norwich to run onto the North Norfolk Railway (NNR) heritage line tracks.

The link was reinstated in March 2010, when the first passenger train over the new crossing was hauled by steam locomotive Oliver Cromwell from London Liverpool Street.

The North Norfolk Railway also operate a number of dining trains over the entire surviving section of the M&GN, between Holt and Cromer, during summer months.
