The hoardings depict the history of the station and its important role in East End life, taking commuters and residents through to what it will look like in 2010 when the work is completed.
The hoardings signal a significant milestone in the £100m construction project to transform the station to accommodate hundreds of thousands of spectators coming to the Games in 2012, and leave a legacy of improved transport links for east London.

By 2016, the number of passengers at Stratford Regional Station in the morning peak is expected to more than double, and the ODA's work to treble the capacity of the station and improve accessibility will help meet this future demand.
Most of the work will benefit commuters and residents long before the Games, as it will be finished by the end of 2010, almost two years before the Games. It includes nine new lifts, new platforms, wider, longer and clearer platforms, and a new station entrance at mezzanine level.
ODA Transport Director Hugh Sumner said: "The vast majority of spectators going to the Games by train in 2012 will use Stratford Regional Station. This £100m construction project to treble capacity will make sure that we can get everyone to the Olympic Park quickly and safely, as well as serve the growing community in years to come.
"The new pictures we have released today showing the future of Stratford Station giving commuters and residents a sense of what they can expect to see. Stratford Station will be completed as early as 2010 - which means that the benefits will be felt two years before the Games start."
