  Norwich Crown Point - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Crown Point was originally the name given to an area within the city of Norwich in the United Kingdom.
It is sometimes nicknamed "Clown Point" by railway enthusiasts due to the fact that, in their opinion, the quality of the maintenance carried out there may be more suited to a circus.
In order to avoid the chaos of unloading scenery and wild animals at the passenger station, a siding was built to allow the unloading to take place away from the general public.

 Norwich to Liverpool St push pull
During the late 1980's the London to Norwich services were electrified and upgraded by the use of Class 86 locomotives and push pull operation.
However they were then hard-wired with through control cables but following the cascading to Norwich they were upgraded and fitted with TDM through control for use with the class 86 locos - which of course had already been operating with the system on WCML.
One unusual feature of the Norwich services is the use of the locomotives at the London end whereas the class 91 and Mk4 DVT and the original WCML formations usually had the locos at the Country end.
