History
Opened	1888

West Horndon station is a railway station located in West Horndon on the boundary between the boroughs of Brentwood and Thurrock, with the railway line forming a continuation of the boundary.

The station was opened in 1888 as East Horndon by the London Tilbury & Southend Railway as part of a new direct route from Barking to Pitsea, avoiding Tilbury. It is located 19 miles (30.6 km) down line from Fenchurch Street. This station name was changed to West Horndon in the early 20th century. The station consists of two platforms connected by a footbridge. The original station structures remain and the station is of similar layout and design to Ockendon.

Train services are operated by c2c. The station has low usage compared with other stations on the line and therefore half of the off-peak trains passing here run without stopping.

Off Peak Service

The typical off-peak service frequency is:

• 2tph (trains per hour) to Fenchurch Street
• 2tph to Shoeburyness

West Horndon is between Upminster station and Laindon railway station.
