Who we are
Arriva Rail London is no longer the operator of London Overground services. This page will no longer be updated.
Arriva Rail London (ARL) was the train operating company responsible for running the London Overground network under a concession agreement with Transport for London (TfL). The seven-and-a-half-year concession commenced on 13 November 2016 and was extended by two years in 2023 to run until 3 May 2026.
Working in partnership with TfL, ARL delivered improvements for London Overground customers through more frequent services, new trains and improved interchanges, as well as developing stations and lines to meet increasing passenger demand and to support new homes and jobs.
Arriva Rail London is part of the Arriva group. Arriva is a leading provider of passenger transport across Europe, employing around 35,500 people and delivering around 1.5 billion passenger journeys across 10 European countries.
