The light is good all day round if there is sun, but photographers can decide where to stand when you get there, the sun can be low in the mornings and evenings, but if you are on the right side for the sun its good.
In the Afternoon its best to shoot toward Norwich on the north end of Platform 2 as you will have the sun behind you, and on the side of the train.
Station staff are kind and will assist you if you ask.
Diss is good for videographers.
