Do you know how cheap and easy it is to come into our beautiful city by train? With advance fares much cheaper than you think and a journey time of just 90 minutes from London on some services on Greater Anglia, leave the car at home and enjoy our welcoming spaces your own way. Your city visit starts the moment you step aboard.
Stay for a day and catch a late-night service home, or stay awhile with no worries about car parking or traffic jams. It’s 100% leisure from the time you leave home.
Pull out of London from Liverpool Street, past the Olympic Village and you’ll soon be in wide, open countryside. Through ancient market towns like Ipswich and Colchester and onwards, sometimes skimming past water, other times through green fields. Relax, take time to enjoy a drink or read a book. Arrive refreshed and raring to explore our unique city – the street-food, department stores and leafy lanes of the centre are just a 10-minute stroll away from the station.
From just £10 each way from London, get the best deals when you book in advance. Check out the Greater Anglia Website or download their app for easy access to times and fares.
Feeling spontaneous? Book tickets up to a minute before travel via the app for a last-minute escape that will leave you wanting to come back again.
And we’re not just the one-stop destination at the end of the London line. Come cross-country from Liverpool direct or pick up the train from Peterborough, Nottingham, Sheffield or Manchester. We’re within easy reach. And the service from Kings Cross via Cambridge opens up even more options for hassle-free travel.
From here, Wymondham, Cromer, Great Yarmouth and Thetford are just up the line. Spend a day by the sea and be back in the garden of The Assembly House for a glass of bubbly in the evening, if you can’t bear the thought of going home just yet.
Pack a lunch, pack for a weekend – whatever you choose to do, hop on the train to open up more ways to enjoy our city. Whether you’re a culture-loving explorer, a real-ale drinker looking for the best fire-side bars, a present-hunting bargain finder or a history hungry on a heritage trail, get on board for a fun time without the fuss.
Jump aboard. We’re waiting.
