Services
Nearly all trains are operated by the Greater Anglia, however as of May 2007 two c2c services operate during the late evening to Barking. This is a throwback to BR days when London Fenchurch Street closed early in the evening as a cost-saving exercise and all services operated from Liverpool Street. c2c also operates from Liverpool Street when engineering work prevents access to Fenchurch Street.
Liverpool Street is the principal passenger destination, although Stratford, with connections to Canary Wharf and its proximity to the 2012 Olympic Park, has grown in significance.
