The following stations are on the Loop itself following Barnes Station , where there is the junction from the direct line through Richmond :
TRAIN SERVICES Since 2004 , South West Trains have operated 4tph (trains per hour) in each direction on the line, both peak and off-peak. Typically, two of those operate via Richmond on a loop to and from Waterloo and two operate to and from Weybridge , via Addlestone , Staines and Feltham . On Sundays the line operates at 1tph with all trains running to and from Woking via Feltham . FUTURE Hounslow Council are in the process of promoting Crossrail services between Hounslow and London Paddington . They propose that Crossrail trains terminating at London Paddington from the east should continue towards Old Oak Common , where they would join the North London Line and call at all stations to Hounslow , then return calling at all stations to Paddington . The route would use an existing freight spur in Brentford to leave the North London Line and join the Hounslow Loop Line . Reversing sidings would be provided west of Hounslow to reduce dwell times at the platform, with the running lines at either side of them. Relevant infrastructure adjustments and station modifications would be needed to allow for 12 car Crossrail operation, all which will probably be addressed in the Crossrail Bill . Hounslow - Brentford will benefit from 6tph in both directions, which matches the frequency of outer London Tube services. |
