The Lynn to Hunstanton railway line was closed in 1969, due to a decline in passenger numbers.

This brilliant documentary, by former college student Christopher Brockbank, recaptures old memories and includes archive film footage and fascinating facts about this former part of the 'Great Eastern Railway' network.

Christopher is currently studying documentary at a university in Wales:
"I intend to make many films about Kings Lynn whilst I'm there and many more when I graduate. I've decided to make a full one hour version of King's Lynn to Hunstanton, when I have more education under my belt. Be on the look out for it, in a few years time!"

Part 2 of this fascinating documentary starts off looking at Heacham Station, and how it was once connected to Wells-Next-The-Sea. It also looks at what happened to the old station at Hunstanton.
