London Crosslink
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
London Crosslink was a train service operated by Anglia Railways, which ran between Ipswich and Basingstoke, using the North London Line to by-pass central London. Class 170 "Turbostar" diesel multiple units were used. The service ran from 30 May 2000 to 28 September 2002.
The service was supported with funding from the Strategic Rail Authority through its Rail Passenger Partnership fund. Due to capacity constraints on the North London Line the service only ran seven times a day with uneven headways.
