History
The railway line between Bury St Edmunds and Thetford was proposed by the Bury St Edmunds and Thetford Railway (B&TR) and authorised on 5 July 1865; but the company had problems in raising the necessary money.[4] After assistance was given by the Thetford and Watton Railway (T&WR), the plan was modified, and instead of running to the main station at Thetford, a curve was built so that T&WR trains from Swaffham could run directly to the Bury St Edmunds line without reversing at Thetford.[5] The B&TR line between Bury St Edmunds and Thetford Bridge was opened on 1 March 1876.[6] The B&TR was purchased by the Great Eastern Railway (GER) in 1878.[4]
Trains on the B&TR were operated by the T&WR until 1879, when operation was taken over by the GER;[7] after this, trains from Bury began to run to Thetford; the east to south curve at Thetford Bridge was not used after 1880.[8] Thetford Bridge was then the last station before Thetford.[9]
