One of the several boat trains run by the London and North Eastern Railway from London Liverpool Street to connect with sailings to and from Harwich Parkeston Quay. The train had its origins in the Great Eastern Railway’s Hook of Holland boat train from 1921. The train carried the title The Hook Continental from 1927 until 1939. However, when merged with the Antwerp service in July 1932, the carried the title ‘Hook and Antwerp Continental’ until July 1937. Throughout its running the train never carried any headboard. Withdrawn at the start of the Second World War, The Hook Continental title was re-introduced in November 1945.
