Have you heard the tale of the Maryland? You’re standing before it now. Tucked away in east London, a haven for locals seeking a quick trip to the heart of the city or a commute further east, the Maryland Station is a bustling hub. The story of the Maryland goes back further than you might think. Opened in 1873 under the name ‘Maryland Point’ by the Great Eastern Railway, it transformed into a local hub in the mid-19th century. Despite facing the prospect of closure in 2006, much-needed renovations have breathed new life into the station. The station had a brief moment of silence during the 2012 Olympic Games, given its inability to handle the influx of spectators heading to the nearby Olympic Park. Today, bustling with the Elizabeth Line’s modern fleet, the Maryland Station welcomes you to explore the vibrant heart of east London.
