M & GN J Railway Melton Constable to Norwich City. Pt4 Lenwade to Drayton.

In this part I walk the old M & GN Railway line from Lenwade to Drayton.
Also passing through the old Attlebridge Station which is now a private residence.

I just cannot resist your Norfolk, in particular M&GN, videos. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU.

Many thanks.

I love channels like this! Walking these trackbeds makes one realize how fast nature envelopes some features! When it comes to the plantation bit it looks as if there weren't as many trees that close to the embankment so maybe leaves may not have been such a problem on the line, but I could be wrong 😁 Thanks 👍

[@nutmeg5032]

Thanks for your comments. I think you are right, I think they recognised the fire risk from steam engines so kept the line side clear.

Thanks Kev, yes I’m always excited to find something original sometimes hidden away. But then I’m an old relic myself, ha ha.
Cheers
Michael
