Beckton station is in Travelcard Zone 3. The next station is Gallions Reach.
When the London Docks and gasworks at Beckton were active, they were served by a railway system. A separate station known as Beckton existed on this earlier network, several hundred yards east of Beckton DLR station, until its closure in December 1940.
