Brampton and the line typically sees one train per hour in each direction between Ipswich and Lowestoft. It is managed by Abellio Greater Anglia, which also operates all the trains.^[1]

The railway line between Halesworth and Haddiscoe was opened by the East Suffolk Railway (ESR) on 4 December 1854,^[2] and the station at Brampton was opened on the same day.^[3]

The ESR was absorbed by the Eastern Counties Railway in 1859, which in turn was amalgamated with other railways to form the Great Eastern Railway (GER) in 1862.^[4] The GER's successor, the London and North Eastern Railway, added the county suffix "Brampton (Suffolk)" on 1 June 1928.^[3]

The station featured in 'No Trace of Tracy', the fourth episode of the first series of Jonathan Creek.

As of December 2019^[update] the typical Monday-Sunday off-peak service at Brampton is as follows:

One weekday early-morning train is extended through to Harwich International and there is a return from there in the evening.^[5]
