Not sure whether it's to compensate for the Friday extra, or to allow the NYMR to run a full service, or both.
Yarmouth-Berney Arms-Reedham has always had a better Sunday service. Dates back to when the 'via Acle' route to Norwich only operated during Summer. This all changed around 2006 when NXEA traded in the franchise commitment to run a through morning/evening loco-hauled through service to London.
most of the stations between Chesunt and Tottenham Hale (apart from Northumberland Park and Angel Road), plus Stratford, gain a direct service to Cambridge, as the "slow" Cambridge-Liverpool Street service is merged with the Bishops Stortford-Stratford service
I remember back in Anglia Railways days everything to Great Yarmouth on a Sunday used to run via Reedham, with the Acle & Lingwood line being closed. Things seem to have changed now though. Wasn't that through service operated by 170s? It coupled up to a train from Lowestoft at Ipswich as far as I can remember. Typical costcutting by NXEA. If you have any more info about them in this period I would love to hear it.

Although much less frequent, the last train is an hour later on a Sunday from Skipton to Leeds.
Handy if you're connecting into the overnight megabus to London.
I don't know if it's still the case, But about 10 years ago, I thought the GNER service between Edinburgh and Kings Cross was slightly better on a Sundays than on weekdays. For a large part of the (Sun)day, there was a train every half-hour, which obviously included Inverness, Aberdeen and Glasgow services. However on Monday - Fridays, it was (still is) an hourly service with an extra one thrown in here and there.
