Westbourne Park is a London Underground station on the Hammersmith and City Line, between Ladbroke Grove and Royal Oak stations, and in Travelcard Zone 2. Although the Metropolitan Railway had been extended to Notting Hill and Hammersmith on 1 June 1864 the first station by this name did not open until February 1, 1866. This closed on 31 October 1871 to be replaced the following day by a new station constructed to the east of the original.
There were once British Rail platforms on the Great Western Main Line, but these closed in the early 1990s.
Adjoining the station is the First Centerwest bus garage.
