Stratford changes name due to the Olympics

STRATFORD REGIONAL STATION is the new name of what was Stratford Station in East London.  All this to save confusion with Stratford International, not far away, that station, the hub of the 2012 Olympic complex.  The ODA (Olympic Delivery Authority) has released new photos of work racing ahead at Stratford Regional as the DLR line from London City Airport via Canning Town pushes on with completion due in 2010.  Eurostar trains will stop at Stratford International after the Docklands Light Railway extension is open.  The station will also serve the high speed Javelin service from St Pancras. www.london2012.com
