West Ealing railway station was opened in 1871 as "Castle Hill and Ealing Dene" on the Great Western Railway, which was constructed from Paddington through Ealing to Bristol in 1836-8.
The station is served by local services operated by First Great Western from London Paddington to Greenford and Heathrow Connect services from Paddington to Heathrow Airport. It is on the original line of the Great Western Railway. It is closed on Sundays. The restricted facilities are an intermittently open booking office and a ticket machine. The station is in Travelcard Zone 3. On weekdays and Saturdays West Ealing is served by eight trains an hour, four going to London Paddington and two going to Greenford and Heathrow Airport respectively.
There are four lines (two for fast services out of Paddington) - but only platforms 3 and 4 exist. There are also the remains of another platform next to platform 4 (the long-closed railway milk dock/distribution depot).
Plans are in hand to provide Crossrail services at the station.
