Veolia Transport

Connex is Europe's largest private public transport company.

In Britain, it runs passenger train services in South East London, Kent and parts of East Sussex, and many bus routes in London and the South East.

Once part of the old Southern Region and Network South East, this dense network of services runs into London Charing Cross, and Cannon Street via London Bridge. The company has become known for promising twelve-coach trains over a network with indequate electric power supplies, for gating and fencing stations to reduce freeloaders and vandalism, and for seeking to overcome capacity limitations by commissioning new trains with no on-board toilets.

Connex previously held the franchise for South Central.

In the Netherlands Connex consists of:

• BBA, buses in Noord-Brabant (except the east part), Tholen and northwest Utrecht (province)
• Connex SBM (Stadsbus Maastricht, city buses)
• Limex (formerly Arriva south-Limburg), buses
• BBA Fast Ferries Zeeland (Westerschelde ferry).

In Germany Connex offers some train services, several of a regional character and two long-distance services.

In Finland Connex owns Helsinki Metropolitan Area's traffic company Connex Finland, which was previously Linjebuss.
