The Station Today
Nowadays the station serves the villages of Lower Street, Thorpe Market and Southrepps. The station is served by local services operated by Greater Anglia. Gunton station is un-staffed, and consists of a single platform with a simple 'bus type' shelter for passenger use. Originally the location of a passing loop, the northbound platform and station buildings are no longer in the ownership of the railway. Instead they are owned by the Lord of Thorpe Market, Stanley Hurn. There is an unrestricted car park at the station that holds about ten vehicles.

Famous quotes containing the words station and/or today:
“...I believe it is now the duty of the slaves of the South to rebuke their masters for their robbery, oppression and crime.... No station or character can destroy individual responsibility, in the matter of reproving sin.”
—Angelina Grimké (1805–1879)
“We have today and I could call their name
Who know exactly what is out of joint
To make their verse and their excuses lame.
They’ve tried to grasp with too much social fact
Too large a situation.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
