In the 1840s, the town leaders of Eye unsuccessfully lobbied to have the new main line from London to Norwich run through Eye - instead, the line was routed through nearby Diss, which had an enormous effect on the prosperity and growth of that town. Eye got its own station on a later branch line, of much less importance, opening some time later.
