Trains to Dover...?

Question

What stations are situated in Dover or in the Port of Dover or even the closest, I'm looking to get a train from London to Dover but I'm very confused!

Answer 1

The station in Western Docks was closed some time ago and there is only the one station Priory now.

Trains run from London Victoria via Faversham and London Charing Cross via Ashford and the journey will take app. 2 hours.

A courtesy bus links the station and the port during the day from app. 0700 - 2000.

Answer 2

Folkestone: Eurostar from Waterloo or Ashford.

Answer 3

Since the withdrawal of the "Boat Train" services, the only station in Dover itself is called Dover Priory, which is served by Southeastern services from London Charing Cross and London Victoria.

Timetables can be found at the site below. You need Timetable 11 (London to Ashford International, Canterbury and Dover), which gives an easier to follow summary than the full Timetable (Number 8).

Answer 4

Phone British Rail  There should be a train right to the port itself.

Answer 7

Dovercourt is nowhere near Dover, it is in Essex. Dover Priory is in the town centre and if you need the ferry port you can just get a taxi. There are regular services from London usually twice an hour.
