    By Rail

The nearest station to the museum is Oulton Broad South which is on the East Suffolk Line from Ipswich to Lowestoft.

Trains along this line are not very frequent, about every two hours, and the station is around 40 minutes walk away.  It may be best to travel to Lowestoft Railway Station and connect with one of the bus services above. Services X2 and 102 both stop opposite the main station entrance near McDonalds.

There are regular train services to Lowestoft Railway Station from Norwich at approximately hourly intervals on Mondays to Saturdays and 2 hourly on Sundays.  These trains stop at Oulton Broad North station, but we do not recommend that you alight there as this is at least an hour's walk to the museum.  Alight at Lowestoft and connect with a bus as detailed above.
