Garston railway station serves the Garston area of Watford in Hertfordshire, England. It is the second station on the St Albans Branch Line after leaving Watford Junction. The station, and all trains serving it, are operated by Silverlink.

Like all the other stations on the branch, Garston is now a simple unstaffed halt, but at the time of its opening in 1966 this was a welcome addition to a branch which was otherwise being heavily rationalised.

Services

Trains operate between Watford Junction and St Albans Abbey every 45 minutes in each direction Monday to Saturday, and every hour on Sundays.

Future

Transport for London have expressed interest in taking over the St Albans Branch Line and installing Oyster Card readers on the stations along the branch[1]. It may install a passing loop at Bricket Wood to enhance the service on the line.[citation needed]
