Trains to Queenborough

Originally opened in 1860, Queenborough train station serves the North Kent town of Queenborough on the Isle of Sheppey, North Kent. The station lies between Swale and Sheerness-on Sea on the Sheerness branch line. Southeastern trains run a typical off peak service of two trains per hour to Sheerness-on-Sea, and Sittingbourne, where onward connections can be made for travel towards London. The fastest journey times to Sheerness-on-Sea and Sittingbourne are 5 minutes and 13 minutes respectively. 

The small town of Queenborough grew up as a port, lying at the point where the rivers Swale and Medway join. The town was named after Philippa of Hainault, Queen to King Edward III. Admiral Lord Nelson shared a house in the town with his mistress Lady Hamilton; he is reputed to have learned many of his seafaring skills in this area. 

Queenborough train station has two platforms, both with step-free access. Connection between the platforms can be made either by an iron footbridge or the nearby B2007 road bridge. The imposing two-storey Victorian station building contains a staffed ticket office and waiting room. There are no toilet facilities at this station.
