Happy New Year – and Happy Birthday to Ore station on the Marshlink line.

The station opened on 1 January 1888 making it 137 years old today.

What a great way to start 2025 as we – and the rest of the rail industry – mark 200 years of the modern railways with Railway 200.

More details about the history of Ore station can be found on the Kent Rail website here.

Look out throughout the year for details of many more activities on our lines and in partnership with our train operating companies and others as we celebrate the past, present and future of the railways.
