THE FESTIVE SEASON BEGINS AT ARL!

After a busy year, it is time to come together to reflect and celebrate as this festive season approaches. Join us as we travel throughout the network spreading our festive cheer.

First stop: Norwood Junction. Festivities are in full swing with decorations from Grace-Anne Stephenson.

Next stop: Barking Riverside. The Emerge East Christmas event took place outside the station this weekend. Welcoming Londoners to experience the creativity, community and nature that our emerging new area has to offer.

Showing off plenty of local delights, from delicious home-cooked food and shopping from independent businesses, to exploring the area with nature walks, or learning about stargazing - plus there's music, entertainment and plenty of free fun for kids. Pauline Lawler and team hosted a busking session inside to cheer commuters up.

Stay tuned as we explore more stations throughout the season. Why not take some time to visit stations as more decorations and events emerge this month?
