A visit to the Royal Station at Wolferton last month did not disappoint. In private ownership now, it’s a wonderful example of best practice heritage restoration. So much LNER and GER examples and detailing to learn from. Do visit if you get the chance.

A very royal station Wolferton.

In Feb 1862, Sandringham was purchased for the young Prince of Wales (King Edward VII).

3rd Oct 1862 Wolverton station opened, in 1863 it was renamed Wolferton Station sadly the station closed on 5th May 1969.

Now it's a private residence.

We have this brightly-coloured postcard of a piece by artist Peter Annable of Wolferton railway station when King Alfonso of Spain visited in 1907.

Date for your diary folks - the launch of The Royal Station Master's Daughters in Love will be held at 2pm on Sat, 27th April at King's Lynn library.
Today I met their wonderful manager, Mary, to plan it. She is as excited as I am about it! @Wolferton @NorfolkLibs @KingsLynnLive

This one is 1979 - no doubt most will recognise the location. Its Wolferton ten years after the good Doctor's remedy had took full and final effect - trains no more of course! We used to go to Heacham in the 60s thus it was sad to see this.

@Shahtech915572 Fancy running Wolferton station in 1925 when the Windsor family arrived en route to Sandringham. At least the station master got a darn good house. https://t.co/QJzumLEN3h

This review of The Royal Station Master's Daughters #WWI #royal trilogy set at @Wolferton made me chuckle: "I'm about half way through, and it is a very enjoyable read, even for a non Royalist like myself." https://t.co/cWgBls9CHW
