The line runs between the railway town of March and the Market town of Wisbech at the very edge of
Cambridgeshire. There is a lot of work which would need done to reopen
the line, including a huge amount of sleepers to replace, some rails
and chairs to replace, as well as building of platforms.
The Line starts at March Station and is still connected to the
mainline. Leaving March, the line curves to the right and actually
curves back on itself, before heading towards Coldham. |

From Elm Road
Level Crossing to Wisbech is almost a dead straight line, with one
gentle curve as you leave Coldham Station. The Line has 6 Level
Crossings of note, these include 2 Automatic Half Barrier (AHB)
crossings, 3 Manually operated Level Crossing Gates, 2 Automatic Open
Level Crossings (AOCLS).
Original layouts:
Waldersea Drove
L.N.E.R Coldham

line please see the entry on

The only original part of the stations left is the old gents toilet
block at Coldham, which is still there amongst the trees and weeds.
The Bramley Line Heritage Railway Trust plans to create a small depot
site at Waldersea, which used to be a Goods Depot. There is space there
for some small items to be stored, and it is hoped to have a visitor
centre of such established there to raise money for the group.
Like everything, all these things take time, and can only happen
with the volunteers available to do the work.
