Rail passengers travelling around the capital will benefit from even more Southern trains in the height of rush hour – meaning more convenient journeys and more seats.

Commuters across south London will notice the new and adjusted services in just two weeks' time when train operator Southern rolls out its new December timetable from 15 December.

It includes weekday services on some of its busiest routes through south London, including from Sutton and Norwood Junction, leading to more comfortable journeys into the city and connecting places with new direct trains.
