CultureLineWith the opening of the London Overground East London Line comes the launch of CultureLine which encompasses a group of ten London museums - now accessible when you take the train from Dalston Junction to West Croydon. The things you'll see both at the museums and along the way are spectacular - especially the overland stretch from Dalston Junction to Whitechapel. Participating museums with their nearest station are listed below:

- Dalston Junction Station
- Geffrye Museum - Hoxton Station
Wesley's Chapel - Shoreditch High Street Station
- Royal London Hospital Museum - Whitechapel Station
- Whitechapel Gallery - Whitechapel Station
- The Women's Library - Whitechapel Station
- Brunel Engine House - Rotherhithe Station
- Horniman Museum - Forest Hill Station
- Crystal Palace Museum - Crystal Palace Rail Station
- Museum of Croydon - West Croydon Station

In 2011 the Estorick Collection of Modern Italian Art becomes the eleventh museum to join CultureLine when the East London Line reaches Highbury & Islington.
