WELCOME

The Holt, Melton Constable and Fakenham Railway Company exists to investigate and, in partnership with others, help put in place a cohesive public transport structure for the benefit of all who live and work in Norfolk as well as visitors to the county.
The Norfolk Orbital Railway would link existing lines of the national network with the two standard gauge privately owned railways to enable greater access to public transport for the communities served and increased revenue earning potential for all the constituent partners.

The map shows the beguiling simplicity and logic of our plan to recreate rail links between the existing lines, offering a real alternative to road travel in this crowded area.
