History
The service was launched in 1993 and replaced Carelink. In contrast to the Carelink service, Stationlink was open to all passengers and was included in the Travelcard scheme. The buses were designed to have space for luggage, wheelchairs and pushchairs.
The initial service operated in a clockwise direction only, calling at Paddington, Marylebone, Euston, St Pancras, King's Cross, Liverpool Street, Fenchurch Street, London Bridge, Waterloo, Victoria and Victoria Coach Station.
From 29 June 1996 the clockwise route, now numbered SL1, was supplemented by the SL2 anti-clockwise service. These routes were served by low-floor Optare Excel buses.
