For car drivers Brandon station has NCP parking via an app for £3.00, considerate parking may be found in Brandon streets e.g. Station way.
This is a linear, so car drivers will need to buy a single train ticket from Thetford to Brandon, £5.70. Be careful to ensure the train stops at Brandon; the 36 past the hour stop at Brandon, the 22 past the hour does not.
