Faster trains - better for everyone
From 2011 we'll connect it to the extended East London line - the start of an orbital service right round London.
To enable us to run a more reliable and efficient service ahead of the Olympic Games, we, along with the Olympic Delivery Authority and Network Rail, are funding the upgrade of tracks and signalling on the Overground network.
These works will be carried out by Network Rail in 2009 and 2010 and will enable us to run more frequent services on all routes by 2011.
Running in the future
The extended East London line will become part of the Overground network when it opens in 2010, running from Dalston Junction to West Croydon, Crystal Palace and New Cross.
It will eventually link with the North London line at Highbury and Islington in 2011, creating the beginning of an orbital service.
