This is a list of the 356 heavy rail passenger stations in and around London, England (340 being within the boundary of Greater London) where London area ticketing applies. United Kingdom railway stations are grouped into one of a number of categories, ranging from A—national hub to F—small unstaffed bare platform. Many of the principal central London stations are managed by Network Rail and together form a London station group. Most other stations are managed by the train operating company that provides the majority of services at the station. The London Underground is the manager of some stations that are also served by heavy rail services.
Scope
Greater London is divided into 6 fare zones, with Zone 1 being the central area and Zones 2–6 forming concentric rings around it. London zonal pricing is applied to journeys between stations wholly within Zones 1–6.[1]
There are a number of stations designated as Zones 7, 8 or 9. These zones are totally outside Greater London where London area rail ticketing doesn't apply, and are treated differently compared to stations within Zones 1–6, therefore they are excluded from the scope of this article.
