After experiencing a good few train rides on this (16) and other lines (110), I think that I can…read moresafely say that this is the least comfortable. - The peak time trains are full. Literally, every seat is taken and there can end up being a few people standing in the vestibules. What's particularly annoying is when they keep stepping on the sensor that opens the sliding door. *slam* *slam* *slam*. For an hour. - So when the peak time trains are full, that's only standard class. There are three First class carriages as well and I have yet to see them even close to being utilized. If the price for First wasn't three times as much as Standard, I might consider it. Why not remove one of these and add a standard class? - Not only do they not have power at the seats (even in First), the arms on the chairs do not move. This makes getting into and out of the window seat a serious challenge involving balance and bending. - The actual ride is uncomfortable. The train sways from side to side often, plus there is a serious lurch every minute or two as the train speed changes and the carriage gets "bumped" or "yanked" by the carriage behind or in front. - Out of 16 trips on East Anglia between Liverpool Street and Norwich, four have been late. Two of those were more than 30 minutes late. One of them, over an hour late. For a two hour trip, that's out of hand. Last week, I made a purchase from the buffet car. The attendant was very polite and very helpful. But she didn't have a swipe machine for my credit card. She had to put it in one of those sliding imprint machines that runs over the card to get the numbers. I haven't seen one of those in ten years! Sadly, I have no choice but to continue riding East Anglia for the next few months, as my customer is in Norwich.

Located about a 10 min drive from the…read moreuniversity section of town, it's an 1 hour 10ish minutes commute from London about £40 off peak round trip booked a couple weeks in advance, (prices may be higher or lower based on when you book, and peak vs non-peak transit times). In the station tickets are available for purchase at machines or ticket windows, if you haven't purchased online in advance. There are bathrooms, waiting areas and a small M&S express store inside the station, most of the platforms are covered and there are plenty of signs indicating platform numbers and arriving trains. Generally speaking station looked pretty clean. Outside the station there are bike racks and also temporary standing space for cars waiting for passenger pick up though long term parking I believe is a bit of a walk. Also local buses have stops right down the street (mostly walking towards the left as you exit the station), and they have general routes on posted signs and arrival times (posted live on electric signs). For more details on more local stops and fare amounts (vary by bus line and route), best to do some Google research prior to getting on.

It's a fabulous journey back into the past made all the more enjoyable as virtually all the staff on the trains and stations are volunteers who have a real passion for the days of steam. Throughout the year there are a number of 'specials' where people may travel whilst wearing period clothing, or have a day out with Thomas the Tank engine or go on the Santa Special which make the trips more memorable than the usual weekday trip that I had experienced. The only criticism I had really was the cost, which for one adult was £9.50 and a family ticket comprising of 2 adults and 2 children was £29, which I imagine might make some families think twice about doing the journey.

Imagine the relief my friends and I felt as we hopped aboard the train to run away to Cambridge for the day to walk the city streets unencumbered by parents. As we grew a little older London was allowed too, and the journeys were filled with excited chatter about the adventures we'd have when we got there. I look back fondly on those weekend day trips, the promise the station held and the fun I had leaving it. My first band even had a photo shoot there! But enough nostalgia - all the casual traveller needs to know is there are two platforms, a waiting room and toilets on one of the platforms (the ladies is a really long, thin, bizarre single cubicle). There's even a proper ticket machine these days - a big development! What else? The cash machine at the front of the building charges you £1.75 to withdraw cash (booo!), the pub across the road does brilliant food and there are usually cabs at the front of the station but the town centre is only 15 minutes walk away and there are buses too. The trains and buses don't run very late though, you're in a countryside market town now.
