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.

Famous quotes containing the word services:
“O, the difference of man and man!
To thee a womans services are due.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
“The community and family networks which helped sustain earlier generations have become scarcer for growing numbers of young parents. Those who lack links to these traditional sources of support are hard-pressed to find other resources, given the emphasis in our society on providing treatment services, rather than preventive services and support for health maintenance and well-being.”
—Bernice Weissbourd (20th century)
