[1] The station was located just to the east of the A12, opposite the Denes High School; a site which is now occupied by Beeching Drive.
[11] It was also a popular location for the movement of troops by the military which had camps nearby on the North Denes and on what is now Corton Road playing field.
[12] The March 1908 timetable shows three weekday afternoon/evening services from Lowestoft North to Yarmouth Beach; the journey time was 26 minutes.
[13] The first service departed at 1317, arriving at Yarmouth Beach at 1343; it then proceeded via North Walsham Town (1454), Melton Constable (1530), South Lynn (1656), Holbeach (1734), Bourne (1802) and terminating at Saxby (1845).
[20] In the last few years before closure, the line became a long siding providing a skeleton passenger service which was very cheap to run and with no level crossings of any importance.
[25] Housing now completely covers the site,[8][26] but the memory of the line lives on as the roads have names associated with the railway, such as Beeching Drive.
After a period during which the line was left unused, overgrown and partially flooded for many years after its closure,[citation needed] a 600 m (660 yd) section between the North Quay Retail Park and Marham Road was made into a cyclepath as part of phase 1 of the scheme which was completed in Spring 1998.
