View northward across the B3378 (original Bath Road), towards West Drayton: ex-GWR West Drayton - Staines branch. The station was closed when the passenger service on the branch ceased from 29/3/65. Goods traffic ceased from 3/1/66, but as the photograph shows the line remains open to this point from West Drayton, for traffic to a fuel depot for Heathrow Airport and to an aggregates depot.
