The railway line through Long Stanton remained open for freight trains from Cambridge to St Ives, Cambridgeshire, until 1992. The track was removed and one platform demolished in 2007, due to construction of the Cambridgeshire Guided Busway; however, the station building remains in private ownership. Parts from the platforms were preserved for re-use on the Mid-Norfolk Railway.
