Station just below the main terminal using Class 317/7 EMU trains. Its run by train
company 'NXEA' (was known as ONE formed from 2004 till 2008) who themselves are owned by
National Express. The route
terminates at London Liverpool Street Station in the City of London after making
a single on-route stop at Tottenham Hale Station.£Tottenham Hale is on the underground system and so may be
