Current timetable
From Sunday 16 May, a new train timetable will be introduced.
Timetables
As government restrictions begin to ease, we are looking forward to welcoming more passengers back to traveling with us. From Sunday 16 May we are introducing a new timetable with more services on many of our routes.
We are continuously reviewing our passenger numbers and adjusting train lengths and services where necessary. Due to an increase in demand, we have already added a limited number of additional and longer trains to our service. Whilst earlier trains and additional stops for key workers (such as on the Chatham Mainline, and at Denmark Hill) are being reintroduced in response to passenger feedback.
As part of our safer travel pledge, we are taking extra steps to help make your journey safer;
We are frequently deep cleaning our trains and stations using anti-viral products, increasing our focus on cleaning high-touch areas and providing hand sanitiser at busy stations. You can also check how busy your train might be with our new SeatFinder tools.
To help keep you safe when you travel with us you must wear a face covering, unless you are exempt. Also remember to maintain social distancing where possible, carry hand sanitiser and wash your hands before and after travel. For more information, please check our travel advice page.
The Key is our contactless smartcard, which enables you to buy and download your tickets at home via our website or the Southeastern app. Using The Key means you can fast track through the station and avoid the queues, it is also wipeable and easy to clean. Order your Key card here.
Where can I find information about weekend services?
At present, our timetables show services for Mondays to Fridays due to changes to train times on weekends for engineering work. For details of weekend train times please use our online journey planner. Service information is available six weeks in advance.
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 week, you can quickly see which services are likely to be busy on your route, and which are a bit quieter.
SeatFinder timetables provides 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.
Tell us what you think by emailing seats@southeasternrailway.co.uk.
To plan a more immediate journey, SeatFinder information is also available on our Live Departure Boards and via the Southeastern app.
