Notes :
(1) Run to mark the last day of through services on the Stour Valley and the St Ives branch lines. Tour brochure also commented 'allowing time to visit the Midland & Great Northern Joint Railway Society's Weybourne to Sheringham branch'. Chris Totty comments: There certainly was time to visit the embryo North Norfolk. We went by bus to Weybourne and a couple of the lucky ones, me included, got a trip back to Sheringham (M&GN) on the Wickham trolley numbered M&GN 1.
