Service Patterns
On Mondays to Saturdays, two trains depart in each direction per hour. In the 'up' (London) direction, one of these trains call at Colchester (North), Marks Tey, Witham, Chelmsford, Shenfield, Romford and Stratford (trains towards London setting down only) before terminating at London Liverpool Street. The other 'up' train calls at Hythe and Colchester Town before terminating at Colchester (North).
In the 'down' (away from London) direction one train calls at Thorpe-le-Soken en route to Clacton-on-Sea. Another train calls at Alresford, Great Bentley, Weeley, Thorpe-le-Soken, Kirby Cross and Frinton-on-Sea before terminating at Walton-on-the-Naze.
On Sundays there is only one train per hour in each direction. The 'up' train calls at Colchester (North), Marks Tey, Witham, Chelmsford, Shenfield and Stratford (where London-bound trains set down) before terminating at Liverpool Street. The 'down' train calls at Alresford, Great Bentley and Thorpe-le-Soken en route to Clacton.
(Colchester Town, Hythe and Weeley are closed on Sundays. Stations on the Walton branch are accessed by an hourly Sunday shuttle from Thorpe-le-Soken.)

Famous quotes containing the words service and/or patterns:
“You had to face your ends when young
‘Twas wine or women, or some curse
But never made a poorer song
That you might have a heavier purse,
Nor gave loud service to a cause
That you might have a troop of friends.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“The ninety percent of human experience that does not fit into established narrative patterns falls into oblivion.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
