Uncovering The History of Caister Camp Halt

Over the past four centuries, Britain's railway network has woven a rich tapestry of stories, both grand and quirky. Among these tales are the humble halts, often overlooked but essential in serving remote locations. The Great Yarmouth and Stalham Light Railway (GYR&SRL) is a prime example. This 4-mile line, built by the Midland and Great Northern Railway, was dotted with seven such halts, strategically placed to capture the summer holiday trade. Join us as we explore these forgotten stations, uncovering their unique histories and the communities they once served. Discover the stories behind their names, the challenges they faced, and the lasting impact they've had on the local landscape. photos were sourced from private Facebook Group Memories of Norfolk's Old Railways and Stations, posted with permission from Russell Walker.
