Stratford station is a London Underground and mainline station at Stratford. It is the eastern terminus of the Jubilee Line, the previous station is West Ham. It is also on the Central Line between Leyton and Mile End and a terminus on the Docklands Light Railway, the previous station being Pudding Mill Lane. It is in zone 3.
The station is also served by National Rail trains. At the same level as the Central Line platforms is the High Level station, served by one Great Eastern. On this line, Stratford is the last station before Liverpool Street, the next station out of London being Maryland. Two c2c trains pass through the station each day as well on the way from Liverpool Street to Southend or vice versa. Platform 7 has been decommissioned, but there is an additional platform, numbered 10A.
Under these platforms are two platforms (Stratford Low Level) served by Silverlink on the North London Line. On this line, the station is between West Ham and Hackney Wick. The three Jubilee line platforms are near by.
On railway tickets, the station is called "Stratford London" to avoid confusion with Stratford-upon-Avon.
When the Channel Tunnel Rail Link is completed, a station will have been built near to this station at Stratford International, along with a DLR extension. Travellers will then be able to catch a direct train from Stratford to Lille, Paris or Brussels.
Further expansion is planned both on the DLR — to increase capacity (which is a major problem at peak times) and to serve Stratford International — and with the Crossrail project, which would bring a direct, fast link straight into Central London, further encouraging the regeneration of London E15.
