Syon Lane railway station in Travelcard Zone 4 is on the Hounslow Loop Line and borders the Spring Grove and New Brentford neighbourhoods of the London Borough of Hounslow in west London.{{refn|group=n|Spring Grove to the west and New Brentford to the east were formally parts of Isleworth to which they retain administrative and community links. The small triangle of four roads south-east in the TW7 'ISLEWORTH' post town remains by default Isleworth and may be considered by some residents as part of Spring Grove. Syon Park, House and Syon Park Hilton Hotel is centred 800m south-east of the station}} The office and light industrial zone to the north-east, the West Cross Centre, has among other businesses the headquarters and studios of broadcaster and entertainment multinational company Sky. The station and all trains serving it are operated by South Western Railway. HistoryThe Southern Railway opened Syon Lane station 81 years after the line, in 1931.[1] Amenities and set-upThe station instead of a building has a passenger shelter on each platform and is set below steps at the foot of a north-south humpback bridge formed by Syon Lane, which crosses the Great West Road at Gillette Corner 100m north. A street-level third entrance, from the convergence of Northumberland, Hexham and Rothbury Gardens (streets), connects the eastbound platform. ServicesThe typical off-peak service from the station in trains per hour is:
On Sundays, two trains per hour to/from London Waterloo call at Syon Lane that continue alternately to/from Woking to the south-west on a mainline and to/from Twickenham and Kingston to the south on the Kingston loop line. It is also occasionally served by trains to/from {{rws|Reading}} or {{rws|Windsor & Eton Riverside}}.
Hounslow Council unsuccessfully proposed that the Hounslow Loop Line be part of the Crossrail route with its inter-regional trains calling at all stations west of Kew Bridge.[2] Planning consultants rejected the proposal in a final route presented to Parliament in 2008. The loop line itself although partially operating services as a through line to Weybridge in Surrey is constrained by level crossings on the Windsor and Reading line running from London Waterloo — four in the town of Egham of the 15 in total along the whole main route and its Weybridge spur are concentrated there in quick succession — whose local authority for transport Surrey County Council and Chamber of Commerce object to full-capacity timetabling without tunnelling beneath or bridging over most of the level crossings.[3][4] {{rail start}}{{rail line|next=Isleworth|route=South Western RailwayHounslow Loop Line|previous=Brentford |col={{SWR colour}} }}{{s-end}} ConnectionsLondon Buses route H28 serves the station.
