London Overground’s new look

We’re naming the London Overground lines to make the network easier to navigate and reflect the Capital’s diverse history. We aim to make the changes by the end of 2024. 

Each of the 6 routes that make up the London Overground will be given a new name and its own colour. 

Giving each of the 6 London Overground routes an individual line colour lets us improve the way our customers experience our network. It also gives each line their own name and identity.
    •    Euston to Watford Junction line – will be called the Lioness line – and will be yellow
    •    Stratford to Richmond/Clapham Junction line – will be called the Mildmay line – and will be blue
    •    Highbury & Islington to New Cross/Crystal Palace/West Croydon/Clapham Junction line – will be called the Windrush line – and will be red
    •    Liverpool Street to Cheshunt/Enfield Town/Chingford line – will be called the Weaver line – and will be maroon
    •    Gospel Oak to Barking Riverside line – will be called the Suffragette line – and will be green
    •    Romford to Upminster line – will be called the Liberty line – and will be grey

In addition, specific improvements will also include: 

•    Greater customer confidence   
•    Clearer wayfinding 
•    Clearer service disruption information  

London Overground will remain as the umbrella brand, keeping the iconic orange roundel. Click here to see the new Overground map. These changes will not affect London Overground services, and customers will still be able to make the same journeys.
