The timetables for the Olympic Javelin trains were published yesterday. There'll be a 24 hour service running between St Pancras and Stratford International for the entire length of the Olympic Games (27 Jul - 12 Aug), with trains taking just six minutes end to end. Between 7am and 11pm there'll be eight trains an hour, all of them continuing to Ebbsfleet, rising to a dozen trains an hour between the key getting-home times of 11pm and 1am. If you have an Olympic Travelcard you can ride this way for free - if not it's £5.70 single. The likelihood of mega-queueing makes a precise timetable almost entirely unnecessary, but here's one anyway.
