Exit the motorway and at the roundabout turn left and head down the A4. About a mile and a half down the road turn right (signposted station) and arrive at the station.

There is a small car park at the station, although to my knowledge, there is no security.

Photographic notes
January 2018 Appeal:
The Great Western Electrification continues expanding towards the south-west making most of the GWML shots west of Ealing on the site currently out of date. Please send in your new images of the old locations with the overhead mast and wires in place so people can see how the locations have changed.


Standard GW platform arangements with the fasts straight through on one side and the slows on a curve on the other. The shot west of the slows is a bit obscured by SandT boxes.
The footbridge is open and can also provide opportunities.
