The Sheringham Link
After 36 years the Bittern line has been relinked to the North Norfolk Railway via an "occasional use" link between the Network Rail station and the North Norfolk Railway's tracks. Although the length of the link is only a few yards the agreement represents a step towards a permanent link and new interchange station. This link is initially available for occasional use (such as charter trains from Norwich and/or London) and for delivery of rolling stock. The crossing was opened on 11 March 2010, after two months of work.

Famous quotes containing the word link:
“All successful men have agreed in one thing,—they were causationists. They believed that things went not by luck, but by law; that there was not a weak or a cracked link in the chain that joins the first and last of things.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
