We are very proud to be able to display our blue plaque from the Railway Rail Heritage Awards, received in December 2022. Thank you to Andy from @NRHAwd and Hélène from @NationalHways

Great to cycle to visit @Wolferton today, with Hélène Rossiter of @NationalHways, to celebrate the award of the NH-sponsored 2022 @nrhawd for works on a closed line to Richard Brown for his restoration of the station & its signal box.

A visit to the Royal Station at Wolferton last month did not disappoint. In private ownership now, it’s a wonderful example of best practice heritage restoration. So much LNER and GER examples and detailing to learn from. Do visit if you get the chance.

A very royal station Wolferton. In Feb 1862, Sandringham was purchased for the young Prince of Wales (King Edward VII). 3rd Oct 1862 Wolverton station opened, in 1863 it was renamed Wolferton Station sadly the station closed on 5th May 1969. Now it's a private residence.

Date for your diary folks - the launch of The Royal Station Master's Daughters in Love will be held at 2pm on Sat, 27th April at King's Lynn library. Today I met their wonderful manager, Mary, to plan it. She is as excited as I am about it! @Wolferton @NorfolkLibs @KingsLynnLive

This one is 1979 - no doubt most will recognise the location. Its Wolferton ten years after the good Doctor's remedy had took full and final effect - trains no more of course! We used to go to Heacham in the 60s thus it was sad to see this.

Fancy running Wolferton station in 1925 when the Windsor family arrived en route to Sandringham. At least the station master got a darn good house. cenfoxbooks.com

I'm so grateful for Jill's review after Richard @Wolferton gave her a copy of The Royal Station Master's Daughters. She says, 'The characters and story line were believable and I could almost smell the steam and feel the uncertainty in the air.'

How many station masters get to live in a "cottage" like the one at Wolferton? Dealing with royalty on a regular basis is George Miracle's lot from 1924 until WW2. See more at cenfoxbooks.com
