Ingatestone railway station is a railway station serving the village of Ingatestone in Essex, England. The station and all trains serving it are operated by National Express East Anglia.

ervice Patterns

All services are electrified. A train leaves hourly in each direction. Up (London-bound) trains call at Shenfield and Stratford (where trains set down only), meaning that most trains reach London Liverpool Street in half an hour.Down (away from London) trains call at Chelmsford, Hatfield Peverel and Witham, then:
*White Notley, Cressing and Braintree Freeport before terminating at Braintree (Mondays-Saturdays), or:
* Kelvedon, Marks Tey, Colchester (North) and Manningtree on route to Ipswich (Sundays).Typically it is served by all London bound trains when there is engineering works further up the line.

History

The first station was opened by the Eastern Counties Railway at Ingatestone in 1843 sited just below Stock Lane. Following protests by the then Lord Petre, a permanent station on the present site was opened in 1844 and certainly given the present main station building, in Tudor style with diaper brickwork, in 1846. The up-side buildings (now not largely in railway use) were provided by the Great Eastern Railway in 1885 to a domestic revival design by W.N. Ashbee.
