Great Yarmouth is a seaside resort in Norfolk, England, straddling the River Yare, some 20 miles east of Norwich. A population of 38,693 in the 2011 Census made it Norfolk’s third most populous place. Yarmouth has been a seaside resort since 1760 and a gateway from the Norfolk Broads to the North Sea. Tourism was boosted when a railway opened in 1844, which gave visitors easier, cheaper access and triggered some settlement. Wellington Pier opened in 1854 and Britannia Pier in 1858. Through the 20th century, Yarmouth was a booming resort, with a promenade, pubs, trams, fish-and-chip shops and theaters, and the Pleasure Beach, the Sea Life Center, the Hippodrome Circus, the Time and Tide Museum, and a surviving Victorian seaside Winter Garden in cast iron and glass.

Liverpool Street station is a central London railway terminus and connected London Underground station in the north-eastern corner of the City of London. It is one of the busiest railway stations in London, serving as the terminus of: the West Anglia Main Line to Cambridge; the busier Great Eastern Main Line to Norwich, local and regional commuter trains serving east London and destinations in the East of England; and the Stansted Express service to Stansted Airport. The station opened in 1874, as a replacement for Bishopsgate station as the Great Eastern Railway’s main London terminus. By 1895, it had the largest number of platforms of any terminal railway station in London. During the First World War, an air raid on the station in 1917 led to 162 deaths. In the build-up to the Second World War, the station served as the entry point for thousands of child refugees arriving in London as part of the Kindertransport rescue mission.
