Weybourne
I had a plan. Park at the boating lake in Sheringham; walk along the coastal path past the golf course, turn left and head towards the bridge over the railway and take a picture of the steam train leaving Sheringham at 13.50. I reckoned it would take half an hour, so parked at the appropriate time and set off. That's when it happened. A steam train left Sheringham as I set off.
Did that mean it was early? Was it late? Was it an extra train? Whichever way, it didn't look like a good idea to continue with a half hour walk, stand on a bridge in the middle of nowhere and see, almost certainly, nothing. So I went back to the car and drove to the station at Weybourne. This came in, clearly the 13.50 from Sheringham which answered my question; there must have been an extra train running I hadn't known about.
I wish they'd told me.
EDIT: Turns out it was a special train run in memory of a recently lost friend of the railway.
