C2C staff have found an adorable dog travelling alone on board one of their trains today.

The pooch was found on board a c2c train this morning as he, coincidentally, travelled to Barking station.

Staff took him to a nearby vet to check for a microchip and have urged anyone who recognises the little white dog to get in touch.

They discovered "Lucky" has a microchip but unfortunately there is no owner registered.

A spokesman for the rail firm said on Twitter: "This morning we had a furry friend on board and travel to - you guessed it - Barking.
