c2c being the name of the train operator. I know it's in the article but it sounds like some kind of acronym in the title.

Although the company never officially said that’s why they picked the name, the name is often though to represent the nature of the route; “City to Coast”, or “Capital to Coast”.

Well who knew! — Southend on Sea became a city in 2022…
So you’re technically correct; The best kind of correct 😊
