There are trains every 15 minutes to London Paddington from here, scheduled at either 20 or 24 minutes for the journey. However by 1842, about four years after the original station in West Drayton was opened, there were eight up and eight down trains daily, the fastest of which completed the journey to London in 25 minutes... The station sign on the left states "Change here for buses to Heathrow and Stockley Park". The attractive curved wooden valance is in need of some paint.
