London Link Express
The London Link Express coach service has had a long history with various operators, starting in 1980. In 2001, after Arriva Southend decided to withdraw their route 721 service, Stephensons took over, providing the Green Line routes X1 and X10 coach services, branded as "London Link Express". X1 was the original number of the service when it was first launched in 1980. Stephensons withdrew the service on Friday 11 July 2008, blaming a number of factors. Replacement services by Swallow Coach Company started on 4 August 2008 but were withdrawn on 29 May 2009.

Famous quotes containing the words london, link and/or express:
“Unreal City,
Under the brown fog of a winter dawn,
A crowd flowed over London Bridge, so many,
I had not thought death had undone so many.”

“If parents award freedom regardless of whether their children have demonstrated an ability to handle it, children never learn to see a clear link between responsible behavior and adult privileges.”
—Melinda M. Marshall (20th century)
“Our language has wisely sensed these two sides of man’s being alone. It has created the word “loneliness” to express the pain of being alone. And it has created the word “solitude” to express the glory of being alone. Although, in daily life, we do not always distinguish these words, we should do so consistently and thus deepen our understanding of our human predicament.”
—Paul Tillich (1886–1965)
