Are there any trains between Woolwich / Greenwich and Central London today?

Many passengers in this area have no idea of the train's starting
point: Dartford? Chatham? Slade Green? People don't know, don't care –
and shouldn't NEED to know.

Yes, Southeastern is a very complex operation. Yes, there are many
overlapping routes and services.
But distilling operational information into something customers can
understand is not difficult – provided you have people with the right
skills in place.
