Passenger statistics from the Office of Rail and Road

Kintbury railway station serves the village of Kintbury in Berkshire, England. It is situated on the Reading to Taunton Line, 58 miles 38 chains (58.48 miles, 94.11 km) from London Paddington.

The station was opened in 1847, along with the first portion of the Berks and Hants Railway as far as Hungerford. This was subsequently extended to Devizes and Westbury in 1862 and ultimately to Cogload Junction near Taunton by 1906. The station has a level crossing at its western end, controlled from a nearby crossing box that also remotely supervises the ones at Hamstead and Hungerford (though this will eventually[when?] be abolished and control transferred to the Thames Valley ROC at Didcot by CCTV).[needs update]

Services

Great Western Railway local trains between Newbury and Bedwyn provide the service here. Trains call hourly each way (with peak extras) on weekdays and Saturdays and every two hours each way on Sundays. Some early morning and mid/late evening trains run as far as Reading and/or London Paddington.[1]
