pete 320 Posted July 17, 2023 There are no trains between Cambridge and Norwich that day, have to go via Stowmarket. But note you have 5 minutes to get the connection to Norwich, if miss hour wait to get next. Not guranteed to get into Stowmarket in time to get connection, therefore hours wait in the wasteland that is Stowmarket Station and its environs. Enjoy yourselves if train 5 mins late Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Branston Pickle 3,683 Posted July 17, 2023 I’m on the train on 5th, but from Liverpool St…that is as long as they aren’t on strike again - if they are I’ll be in the motor. The route from Cambridge via Stowmarket isn’t so bad, but it would be a pain to miss the connection. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
