Bure Valley Railway, June 2019, Part 2
After our break at Wroxham station (time for a walk through the town) we witness the arrival of locomotive No. 9 'Mark Timothy' with a service from Aylsham. Following on from arrival the locomotive is turned on the turntable, before returning to the head of the train, ready for the next, and final service of the day back to Aylsham, and with us safely on board we depart. Arriving back at Aylsham we await 'Mark Timothy' to uncouple from the train and run to shed, bringing my visit to the Bure Valley Railway, and Day 2, to a close.

Bure Valley Railway Red Service 23/07/15
During my holiday at Norfolk, I'd paid a visit to the wonderful railway at Bure Valley Railway. An 15 inch narrow gauge railway with the only tunnel still running in Norfolk. The line originally was an standard gauge line ran from Hoveton & Wroxham to Fakenham via Aylsham South. The line closed in 1981 and an few years later Aylsham South Station got demolition to make way for this new railway.
This running day had its peak service of two steam running using BVR ZB Class no.7 Spitfire with unusually fitted with Great Western Railway copper parts and in GWR Livery too & BVR no.8 John of Gaunt based on Vale of Rheidol Railway loco.
We start off with no.7 arriving into Wroxham station, with the next departure from Aylsham station seen coming out of the tunnel under the A148 originally was an level crossing site. Later on we see no.8 arriving into Aylsham station. The same loco departs for Aylsham at Wroxham hauling its 10 coaches long. We take a bit of an linesiding with no.7 speeding though the countryside with the next shot climbing the Wroxham Bank to finish an wonderful time at this lovely railway. I highly recommended to visit and see this railway!
Enjoy!

Bure Valley Railway, Spring Gala (26-28/05/18)
The Bure Valley Railway's annual Spring Gala took place on the Spring Bank Holiday weekend. With 100% availability of the steam fleet, all 5 locos (1, 6-9) could be seen in action. Diesel no 3 also pulled the last train of each day. I attended on the Saturday and Sunday but needed to be elsewhere on the Monday.
Saturday time was spent riding trains, on Sunday, although I bought a ticket, I never quite got around to riding on a train.

Aylsham is a historic market town and civil parish on the River Bure in north Norfolk, England, nearly 9 mi north of Norwich. The river rises near Melton Constable, 11 miles (18 km) upstream from Aylsham and continues to Great Yarmouth and the North Sea, although it was only made navigable after 1779, allowing grain, coal and timber to be brought up river.
The town is close to large estates and grand country houses at Blickling, Felbrigg, Mannington and Wolterton, which are important tourist attractions. The civil parish has an area of 4,329 acres (17.52 square km) and in the 2001 census had a population of 5,504 in 2448 households, reducing to a population of 3,999 in 1,591 households at the 2011 Census. For the purposes of local government, the parish falls within the district of Broadland.
Archaeological evidence shows that the site of the town has been occupied since prehistoric times. Aylsham is just over two miles (3 km) from a substantial Roman settlement at Brampton, linked to Venta Icenorum at Caistor St Edmund, south of Norwich, by a Roman road which can still be traced in places - that site was a bustling industrial centre with maritime links to the rest of the empire. Excavations in the 1970s provided evidence of several kilns, showing that this was an industrial centre, pottery and metal items being the main items manufactured.
Aylsham is thought to have been founded around 500 AD by an Anglo Saxon thegn called Aegel, Aegel's Ham, meaning Aegel's settlement. The town is mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086 as Elesham and Ailesham, with a population of about 1,000. Until the 15th century, the linen and worsted industry was important here, as well as in North Walsham and Worstead and Aylsham webb or 'cloth of Aylsham' was supplied to the royal palaces of Edward II and III.
The ancient but natural transport route for Aylsham would have been the River Bure, but it was not open to substantial navigation. There was a scheme in the 18th century to widen the navigation from Coltishall to Aylsham and, after many difficulties, trading wherries from Great Yarmouth were able to reach a staithe at Aylsham. The final end for this scheme was the devastating flood of 1912.
Road transport for Aylsham was very important. It was the principal coaching point on the Norwich-Cromer road, and the meeting point for other roads. Each day the coaches from Cromer and Holt would draw up at the Black Boys, the main inn in Aylsham market place. Coaching ended with the coming of the railways in the 1880s. There were many different plans for railways, but eventually two lines served Aylsham, with the town having both North and South stations until the 1950s.
Aylsham once had two railway stations, both now closed, Aylsham South railway station on the Great Eastern line between County School railway station (near North Elmham) and Wroxham and the other Aylsham North railway station on the M&GNJR line from Melton Constable to Yarmouth.
Aylsham is also the terminus for the Bure Valley Railway (on the site of Aylsham South railway station), the Bure Valley Path and the Marriott's Way long distance footpath. Blickling Hall, the great country house in the care of the National Trust, is a mile and a half (2 km) away. With its dramatic symmetrical front, flanked by two great yew hedges, it is a fine example of a Jacobean brick-built manor house, and was formerly the home of the young Anne Boleyn, later to become Henry VIII's second wife.
Aylsham was once noted for its spa, situated about half a mile south of the town, comprising a chalybeate spring, formerly used by those suffering from asthma and other chronic conditions. The Tourist Information Centre office is located adjacent to the Bure Valley Railway station. Local entertainment in the town includes concerts by the Aylsham Band, which plays at venues in and around Aylsham; the Aylsham Players who host one or two productions a year; and Aylsham High School, which presents an annual school musical.
