"Dad's Army live weekend over the Bank Holiday. Weybourne became Warmington-on-sea 😃
Blessed with great weather
No parking at Weyborne Station but that is a great excuse to ride the steam trains from Holt or Sheringham
Period events at the station this weekend. Refreshments doing a roaring trade. 40s live music. And the Dad's Army live group who were very entertaining
Take some time to look around the station building. Beautifully restored."
