A better, safer and more accessible railway
Southeastern is committed to a better, safer and more accessible railway and your feedback is vital in shaping that. Based on what you’ve told us, our summer timetable (from 21 May) operates 29 additional trains every weekday, Monday to Friday, and 34 additional trains on Saturdays compared to December 2022. In addition, on every weekday 25 of our trains now have more carriages than before, providing extra capacity on some of our busiest services. Our services now operate without first class so that every seat is available for every customer.
We want your journeys with us to be on new, newer or refurbished trains and so on weekends, we’ve provided more services on our newest Class 707 ‘City Beam’ trains than before.
More from May
Bexleyheath Line
On the Bexleyheath Line, every weekday and on Saturdays there's an hourly direct off-peak service to Charing Cross. This means over 300 direct services run weekly on that route.
Sidcup Line
On the Sidcup Line we've introduced additional peak services on weekdays:
- 07.03 Crayford to Charing Cross via Sidcup - this should mean the 06:40 Strood to Charing Cross is less crowded
- 17.43 Charing Cross to Dartford via Sidcup providing more capacity at the busiest time of day
- 05.24 / 05.54 / 06.24 / 06.54 Dartford to Charing Cross will start from Crayford
We’re doing everything possible to give you the train service you expect and deserve we’ll continue to monitor demand and listen to your feedback as we do so.
How busy is my train?
Our SeatFinder timetables allow you to check in advance how busy your train might be, allowing you to plan ahead and travel with confidence.
Using train loading data from the previous four weeks, you can quickly see which services are likely to be busy on your route, and which are a bit quieter.
SeatFinder timetables provide information for individual weekday services and includes most, but not all, of our trains. If there is no seat availability shown for your journey, it means information isn’t available for that train yet. We are working hard to bring you more information as soon as we can.
