Where To Get On

  • Eastbound, you may find that at peak times, you are more likely to get a seat at the front, as the Ealing Broadway trains fill from the back. Note that shelter is only provided in the middle of the platform towards the rear.

Terminating trains

White City station has a curious phenomenon by way of a single track down the middle of the station, with platforms either side. When a train termnates, it opens one set of doors to let people out. These are closed one by one, then a few minutes later, the other doors are opened to let people board to travel in the other direction.

At peak times if you need or want a seat, you could wait until the train in the middle opens its doors.

Late night trains terminating at White City

If your tube is not going any further out than White City, and there are no other tubes afterwards, you are better getting off at Shepherd's Bush Station as there are many more buses serving Shepherd's Bush.

Nearby

The old Wood Lane tube station building sits a hundred yards south of the current White City station. This used to be the terminus for the Central Line; trains went around a loop to go straight back. This building may be demolished very shortly to make way for a huge shopping complex.
