Aylsham railway station

Aylsham railway station is located in the town of Aylsham in Norfolk and is the northern terminus of the Bure Valley Railway, a narrow gauge operation which reuses some of the trackbed of a former standard gauge branch line, closed in 1977. The station occupies the same site as the former Aylsham South railway station, which operated here between 1880 and 1952.

Aylsham South railway station, the first on this site, opened in 1880. It was operated by the East Norfolk Railway, then the Great Eastern Railway, and became part of the London and North Eastern Railway during the Grouping of 1923. The station passed into the Eastern Region of British Railways on nationalisation in 1948. In 1952 the passenger service stopped, and the freight service was discontinued in 1977. The fine period station buildings stood after closure until 1990, when the Bure Valley Railway opened. Taking over the site, the original buildings were deemed unsuitable for the new project, and were demolished. The new Aylsham railway station was constructed on the site, and opened on 10 July 1990.
