St. German's railway station (site), Norfolk

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: St. German's railway station (site), Norfolk
Opened in 1846 by the Lynn & Ely Railway, later part of the Great Eastern Railway, this short lived station closed in 1851.

View south towards Watlington and Ely from Mill Road Level Crossing. There were probably 2 parallel wooden platforms here. No trace of the station apparently survives. The track was singled in 1984 and the trees are a relatively recent addition.

Later, a platform with cattle pens was opened behind the camera position and for many years the location was known as St. German's Sidings.
