Ways to make your journey easier

As well as our own regular services you can book and use a variety of services on our website. We aim to make travelling as simple as possible – including when you get off and transfer to London Transport or a local bus.

Highspeed trains

We run the UK’s only high speed train line. Our Javelin trains travel at high speeds up to 140mph calling at many stations across Kent - including Canterbury, Margate, Ramsgate, Dover, Whitstable and Folkestone. So you can get where you need to be, faster.

The City Beam

Our City Beam trains are lighter, with open, accessible interiors including two wheelchair spaces every five carriages, plus bigger windows flooding the train with light. They’re also fresher, with airconditioned carriages, improved heating and ventilation.

The Elizabeth Line

The Elizabeth line is London's newest railway. It stretches more than 100km from Reading and Heathrow in the west, through central tunnels across to Shenfield and Abbey Wood in the east. With Southeastern connections at Abbey Wood and Woolwich Arsenal, journey times across the capital will be slashed. The journey time from Abbey Wood to Paddington has been halved to just 29 minutes.

PlusBus

PlusBus is a discount price bus pass that you buy with your train ticket. It gives you unlimited bus travel – on participating operators’ services – to and from the train station and in parts of the town the train station serves.

We can help make planning your journey easier – you can add options to your ticket such as National Rail, bus tickets and travel in London
