Great Eastern Railway

The Great Eastern Railway (GER) was a historic British railway company that operated in eastern England from 1862 until 1923. It connected London with cities and towns in Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and beyond, facilitating passenger travel and freight transport. Known for its extensive train network, GER played a significant role in regional development and economic growth. In 1923, it became part of the London and North Eastern Railway (LNER) due to the grouping of rail companies. Today, its legacy influences modern railway infrastructure and services in that part of the UK.
