Heathrow Central railway station

Heathrow Central railway station

Heathrow Central is a railway station located in London Heathrow Airport. It was formerly known as Heathrow Terminals 1, 2, 3 and for this reason the signage sports the subtitle "Terminals 1, 2 & 3".

The station is served by Heathrow Express, normally running every 15 minutes and Heathrow Connect services, running half-hourly. The former run non-stop to London Paddington, whilst the latter stop at most intermediate stations. Heathrow Connect also run a half-hourly shuttle service from Heathrow Central to Terminal 4 to provide four trains an hour between these stations.

Transport for London Travelcards are not valid on services from the station. Passengers transferring terminals at Heathrow may use the Heathrow Connect free of charge to and from Terminal 4, or the Heathrow Express free of charge to and from Terminal 5.

With the opening of Terminal 5 on 27 March 2008, Heathrow Express services now only run to Terminal 5, with Heathrow Connect services serving Terminal 4.
