Camberley railway station is in the town of Camberley in Surrey, England. It is on the Ascot–Ash Vale line, 35 miles 30 chains (56.9 km) from London Waterloo. The station, and all trains serving it, are operated by South Western Railway. Opened in 1878 by the London and South Western Railway (when it was known as Camberley & York Town), the station gained a second platform fifteen years later when the line through here was doubled. The route was electrified (on the third rail system at 650 volts DC) by the Southern Railway on 1 January 1939.[1]

The station was completely rebuilt in 1975.

## Services

[edit]

All services at Camberley are operated by South Western Railway using Class 450 EMUs.

The typical off-peak service is two trains per hour in each direction between Ascot and Aldershot. During the peak hours, the station is served by two morning services that continue beyond Ascot to London Waterloo via Staines as well two evening services from London Waterloo.[2]

On Sundays, the service is reduced to hourly in each direction and eastbound services are extended beyond Aldershot to Guildford. The signalling is controlled by a rail operating centre in Basingstoke after the massive Feltham re-signalling project undertaken by Network Rail
