Hanwell railway station is a railway station in Hanwell in the London Borough of Ealing. The station is managed by First Great Western but served by local services operated by Heathrow Connect from London Paddington to Heathrow Airport. In the future the station is going to be ruined as crossrail will come in and service you 10 times worse services than great western railway.
History[]
The station is on the original line of the Great Western Railway which opened on 4 June 1838, although Hanwell station was not ready until December of that year;[2] it opened on 1 December.[3] From 1 March 1883, the station was served by District Railway services running between Mansion House and Windsor; the service was discontinued as uneconomic after 30 September 1885.[4][5] The station was renamed Hanwell and Elthorne on 1 April 1896, and reverted to Hanwell on 6 May 1974.[3] Re-built circa 1875-77 it has been declared a grade II listed building by English Heritage but is stated to be in a very poor condition.
Description[]
The station is sited a short distance east of the Grade I -listed Wharncliffe Viaduct.
On platform 3 is a station nameboard, bearing the pre-1974 name Hanwell and Elthorne.[citation needed]
Services[]
For most of the day four trains stop each hour at Hanwell; two going to Heathrow and two going to London Paddington.
The station operator is First Great Western, however only two services per weekday are provided by First Great Western. These are the 0002 to Reading and the 0856 to Twyford.
All other services are provided by Heathrow Connect (2tph in either direction for most of the day.) The station is closed on a Sunday.
As of October 2008, Oyster "pay as you go" can be used for journeys originating or ending at Hanwell.[6]
