Opening on Sunday 28th September according to the BBC, the article
goes on to mention that the station will be served by a (Southern)
East Croydon - Milton Keynes service (but see below...)

Funnily enough, the trainline shows that on 15th December, Southern
will be running to MK hourly, but only from Clapham Junction, as
there no longer appear to be any through trains from further south.
Was this change expected at this early stage - I thought the initial
plan from the RUS _was_ for EC to MK and the cut back to CJ was for
a later change...
The NXEC booking engine shows hourly off-peak xx:10 ECR-MKC and xx:13
return services. The supposedly 455-worked 07:47 ECR-Shepherds Bush is
in there too.
Interesting - 'trainline' not the most up to date - problem solved!
