Beccles Railway Station serves the town of Beccles in Suffolk. The station is on the Ipswich-Lowestoft East Suffolk Line. The East Suffolk Railway, opened in 1854, connecting Beccles to Ipswich, and incorporating parts of the Halesworth, Beccles and Haddiscoe Railway, and the Lowestoft and Beccles Railway. The Waveney Valley Railway from Tivetshall on the Ipswich to Norwich mainline reached Beccles in 1863, making the town an important junction on the expanding Great Eastern Railway network. The Waveney Valley Line closed to passengers in 1954 (lingering on for freight until 1963), together with the line to Haddiscoe north across the River Waveney which closed to passengers in 1959. The engine shed was demolished in 2006, and the island platform is since overgrown. There are traces of the turntable in the ground. There are plans to restore the island platform at Beccles. This is part of a long-term plan by Network Rail to increase capacity on the line by either creating a further double-track section or installing a passing loop. The restoration of the former mainline from Beccles to Haddiscoe Station has been considered. The station is served by National Express East Anglia, who operate services between Ipswich and Lowestoft. All services are operated by diesel multiple units of Classes 153, 156, 170. [edit] ServiceThere is generally a two hourly service from Beccles to Lowestoft eastbound and to Ipswich westbound, with some services continuing onwards to London Liverpool Street using new Turbostar units.
