Roudham Junction railway station

Roudham Junction railway station

Roudham Junction railway station was a station in Norfolk, England. It was located in Roudham, where the Main Line between Norwich and Thetford intercepted the branch line from Swaffham. It was first opened in 1869, but remote and poorly used, it was slowly downgraded. Main line trains no longer stopped there after 1920, and it officially closed to passengers in 1932. In spite of this it continued unofficially to be a request stop for Thetford-Swaffham trains until that branch closed in 1964, having been specifically earmarked in the Beeching report for closure.

Today a few remnants of the former station can be glimpsed by passing trains.
