- The title given to this article is incorrect due to technical limitations. The correct title is c2c.
c2c is a train operating company that provides train services, on a franchise basis, on the former London Tilbury & Southend Railway line from Fenchurch Street in the City of London to east London and south Essex stations including Limehouse, West Ham, Barking, Basildon, Chafford Hundred (for Lakeside Shopping Centre), Tilbury, Southend and Shoeburyness.
c2c is a National Express Group company. Formerly owned by Prism Rail, the company was then called LTS Rail.
All stations on the route are managed by c2c with the exception of Fenchurch Street which is managed by Network Rail and West Ham which is managed by London Underground.
Unlike other rail operators in the London area, c2c allow Oyster card (including Prepay) to be purchased at and used between Fenchurch Street, Limehouse, West Ham, Barking and Upminster. Travelcards charged to Oyster (but not Prepay) can also be used at Dagenham Dock and Rainham.
Services
 c2c services operate from Fenchurch Street Station The off peak service consists of eight trains an hour arriving and departing Fenchurch Street all calling at West Ham and Barking. The service then splits at either Barking or Upminster with two trains an hour for Grays via Rainham, two for Southend Central via Ockendon and four services to Shoeburyness via Basildon (two of which run semi-fast and do not stop at Limehouse, West Horndon, Laindon or Pitsea).
During peak times there is a much increased service and some trains run fast as far as Benfleet while other stopping services terminate short at Laindon or Grays.
Two late weekday evening services serve Stratford and Liverpool Street in each direction.
The London Underground District Line also serves Upminster, Barking, West Ham and Tower Hill (for Fenchurch Street) and tickets are interchangeable between the two operators.
