I did not know about Lowestoft railway station. Something similar was done several years ago at Felixstowe; the old station is a shopping arcade and quite well preserved.
I wondered where I had gone astray and have realised that I was guilty of back translation; for some reason I remembered "Alas, alas, O Postumus, the flying years go by..." and reversed that into cod Latin. Serves me right!
