Before Crossrail – Acton Main Line

A Very Draughty Station – Rating 4/10

Acton Main Line station is not an attractive one and I certainly found it very draughty today.

 

This is a Google Map of the station.

It is a station that will be rebuilt for Crossrail and their plans are comprehensive.  They say this.

Crossrail is building a new Acton Main Line station just to the south of the existing building on the junction of Horn Lane and Friary Road with a location and orientation that creates a new station forecourt east of the station and a new space to the rear.

With four trains an hour under Crossrail, you won’t have to do what I did today and catch a bus to get away from the area.

I think Acton Main Line shows how areas around Crossrail stations will benefit.
