At MTREL, we believe in the power of London’s railway network to connect families, friends, colleagues and communities.
We were awarded the Elizabeth line concession by Transport for London (TfL) in July 2014, initially operating services under the interim TfL Rail branding, connecting Paddington to Reading and Heathrow in the west, and Liverpool Street with Shenfield in the east.
In May 2022, the new Central Section was opened by Her Majesty the Queen, officially launching the new Elizabeth line and offering passengers a new way to travel initially between Paddington and Abbey Wood via Liverpool Street.
The Elizabeth line is the most significant addition to London’s transport network in a generation, providing new journey options, cutting travel time and supporting regeneration across the capital.
We are incredibly proud to be part of this transformative new railway, providing world-class customer service and performance.
MTR is an internationally recognised railway network builder and operator.
Operated by MTREL (a subsidiary of MTR Corporation), the Elizabeth line is part of the TfL network and has interchanges with the London Underground, DLR, London Overground and National Rail services. It’s introduction to the capital has increased central London’s rail capacity by 10 per cent – shrinking London and connecting more communities than ever before.
With a reputation for keeping cities moving, MTR Elizabeth line is responsible for:
To meet our ambitions and deliver a world-leading experience for millions of passengers, we rely on a dedicated and growing workforce.
