Paddington
station served as the London terminus of the Great Western Railway and
its successors since 1838. Much of the current mainline station dates
back to 1854, and was designed by Isambard Kingdom Brunel. The site was
first served by Underground trains in 1863, and was the original
western terminus of the Metropolitan Railway, the world's first
underground railway.
Paddington
is the London terminus for long distance trains, operated by First
Great Western, to Bristol, Bath, Gloucester, Worcester, Hereford,
Exeter and Penzance in the West Country and Midlands, and Newport,
Cardiff and Swansea in South Wales. It also acts as the terminus for
shorter distance commuter services to West London and the Thames
Valley, also operated by First Great Western. Two services from
Paddington serve Heathrow Airport: the Heathrow Express travels
non-stop whilst the Heathrow Connect service runs along the same route
but calls at most intermediate stations.
