Abbey Wood station is on London’s Crossrail route. When the project is complete, this station will be the south-eastern terminus of the route. The first station on this site was opened back in 1849. Due to continually growing passenger numbers, the building and the railway platform have undergone several expansions.

- Short description
- The old station building was demolished in May 2015 because it had become too small for the volume of passengers passing through. The roof of the new building is shaped like a manta ray. The laminated beams had to provide structural stability, as well as satisfying the most exacting aesthetic demands.
