Trains
Drive up. Park up. Take off One of the quickest and smoothest ways to get to and from London is by train, from the modern, purpose-built station just a two minute walk from the terminal. With up to eight services every hour during peak time, and easy connections to the tube network, you’ll be whisked into the City in under an hour, and to Stratford in even less.
