Rail Travel

Special rail services to all Olympic Venues are being provided by operators in partnership with National Rail. These special services are only for passengers with Games event tickets. Over 100 extra train services will be added each day to the regular timetable during the Olympic and Paralympic Games. Trains will run with more carriages to help provide additional capacity at busy times.

Capacity into Stratford station has been increased by more than 350% at peak times and extra train services will run to and from London Liverpool Street to help get people to the Olympic Park.

The special high speed Javelin® service will run between London St Pancras International and Stratford International. Ten trains an hour will depart St Pancras for the Olympic Park.

Spectators who have received confirmation that they have been allocated event tickets can book a 2012 Games Train Ticket for journeys from any National Rail station in the country to London and co-Host Cities over a year before the Games begin. These tickets are only valid when used with a London 2012 event ticket.

2012 Games Train Tickets with non-reservable seats will be valid for any train on the date of travel without restriction. Spectators will be able to return on the date of the ticket and up to midday the following day.

Train tickets for journeys that are not to London and co-Host Cities or venues covered by the Games Travelcard (for example, Eton Dorney) will only be available to book up to 12 weeks in advance of travel.
