Railways in Norfolk - Future

Future

The Norfolk Orbital Railway is a proposal to link the Mid-Norfolk Railway and the North Norfolk Railway to create a line running from Sheringham to Wymondham, restoring regular services to Fakenham and Melton Constable.

In 2008 Hunstanton Council considered a proposal to re-open the line from King's Lynn, but decided against it.

Famous quotes containing the word future:

    ““Dark times” is what they call it in Norway when the sun remains below the horizon all day long: the temperature falls slowly but surely at such times.—A nice metaphor for all those thinkers for whom the sun of mankind’s future has temporarily disappeared.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    “One day my mother called me ... and she said, “Forty-nine million Americans saw you on television tonight. One of them is the father of my future grandchild, but he’s never going to call you because you wore your glasses.””
    —Lesley Stahl (b. 1941)

    “At sixty, I would like to give my future back its vistas of uncertainty.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
