Buckenham, on the Norwich to Great Yarmouth line, was used by only 284 passengers last year.

This made it the least-used in Norfolk and the 12th least-used in the UK, according to figures compiled by the Office of Rail and Road.

While it may not see many passengers, Buckenham does have the unusual distinction of having featured in a Hollywood film.

The station was used as a location in 2019's Yesterday - directed by Danny Boyle and written by Richard Curtis - about a musician who finds himself the only person in the world who remembers the Beatles.
