Route Director David Taylor said: "With frequent services on all c2c routes, we want to make it as easy as possible for people to get out and about over this four day holiday period. There is the Southend Air show on the Saturday and Sunday, followed by the Jubilee celebrations on the Monday and Tuesday. To ensure that passengers have a pleasant journey we are making some trains longer and are running more trains than we would normally at holiday times. Travelling could not be easier this Bank Holiday."
A special leaflet containing the full timetable for the 4 days will be available from Monday 27 June. Details of services can also be obtained from our website : www.c2c-online.co.uk or from the National Rail Enquiry service on 08457 48 49 50.
