About Waterloo
The UK's busiest station, without the wait
Waterloo is Britain's busiest railway terminus, handling tens of millions of passengers a year across more platforms than any other UK station. South Western expresses arrive from Southampton, Bournemouth, Portsmouth, Exeter and the Surrey and Berkshire commuter belt; four Underground lines run beneath it; and the South Bank — the London Eye, Southbank Centre and National Theatre — sits on its doorstep.
All that traffic has one predictable consequence: the taxi rank queue. At morning and evening peaks, after theatre curtain-down and on weekend afternoons, waits regularly stretch past 20–30 minutes — and the meter that follows makes slow London traffic expensive. Booking a fixed-price Rushxo car flips that: your driver is assigned before your train pulls in, meets you at an agreed exit, and the fare was settled when you booked.
