Special trains are being laid on to carry music fans home from the Hop Festival in July.

Southeastern will be providing extra services on the evening of July 3 to take visitors home from the Hop Farm Festival.

There will be two additional services departing from Paddock Wood to Charing Cross which will drop passengers off at stations along the route - but not pick up.

The first train will depart Paddock Wood at 23.50 calling at Tonbridge, Sevenoaks, Orpington, London Bridge, Waterloo East and terminating at London Charing Cross at 00:40

The second will leave Paddock Wood at 12.35am calling at Tonbridge, Sevenoaks, Orpington, London Bridge, Waterloo East and terminating at London Charing Cross at 01:25

A spokesman for Southeastern said: "We have been able to put on these two extra trains and hope that people are able to make use of them. Where possible we are always happy to help community events."
