Weybourne Sheds.
Initially much of the restoration work was done in the open
at Sheringham. This was far from idea and when, the old shed from Norwich City station became available
it was bought and erected at Weybourne in 1980. Work began
developing the yard at Weybourne, allowing maintenance to
move away from the more urban surroundings at Sheringham.
This was extended in 1990 by the addition a period style
machine shop. In 2000 part of a redundant diesel shed from March,
Cambridgeshire was rebuilt here, allowing coach restoration
& maintenance to move under cover for the first time.
A
substantial grant from European Objective 2 funds enabled
the sheds to be joined up and extended. This resulted in a
doubling in size of covered accommodation. Now most of the
fleet of locos cab be kept under cover.
The machine shop and
maintenance facilities have been modernised, and new
accommodation for volunteers & staff developed. |
