Feltham railway station is a railway station situated in Feltham, in the London Borough of Hounslow. It serves a multitude of different destinations, such as Reading, Windsor and Eton Riverside railway station and Weybridge in the westbound direction, and London Waterloo in the eastbound destination. It is in Travelcard Zone 6.
It has two footbridges (one inside the station, with lifts for those with stair-climbing difficulties, and one outside near the level crossing) to gaining access to either side of the station, two shops (one on each platform) and three ticket booths (with three ticket machines available should the ticket booths not be properly staffed). Two waiting rooms can also be found on the eastbound platform, but no such service is available for westbound customers.
Just outside the station there is a collection of bus stops serving areas such as Heathrow, Kingston, Bedfont and Hatton Cross, and a cashpoint for the withdrawal of money.
