    Windsor Royal Station is a nice little shopping mall located in the heart of Windsor, right across…read morethe way from Windsor Castle. It serves as a shopping mall and a train station. You'll find shops for apparel and accessories, fragrance, jewelry, and even cigars. There's also a number of eateries, coffee shops, and a pretty little milk tea/boba cafe. Whether you just want to grab and go or sit down and relax, there's something for everyone. We browsed around for a bit, but mostly went there to check out the pretty milk tea shop which was surprisingly tasty! The decor was lovely as well and I can still taste that wonderful cheese tea topping. Overall, it's a nice, quick stop while in Windsor. They do close quite early at 6pm (except on Sundays, they close at 5pm), so plan accordingly.

    Now I'm not sure if Windsor Royal Station is considered to be where the solitary train track is and…read morethe ticket window, or if it's the whole building that consists of shops, several restaurants and cafes and even an art gallery. I'll assume that it's the whole thing. The train side of the whole thing is, as I said, just one track. The train goes into the nearby town/city of Slough. And I'm pretty sure that is the only place that it goes. From there you change trains for other destinations such as London in one direction and Reading in another. There is also another train station that is about a 10-15 minute walk from this one though and I caught that train the other day to Twickenham (London) to see the rugby. Overall, it's a nice old-y world-y comfortable feeling that the place gives you. You can shop at the outdoor (really indoor) market stall or have a cup of coffee or even a really good meal at one of the cafes and/or restaurants. Obviously a great place to be when its raining outside.

    I guess this is the problem when you are running private railways, namely that you end up doubling…read moreup on stations, and also have more trains and track running about the place than is necessary (though I believe the government actually owns all of the tracks). So, this is the other station for Windsor, which is rather odd because, well, I don't see why a town the size of Windsor actually needs more than one railway station. Probably because it is a pretty touristy place, and the royal residence is here as well. Still, the station is quite nice, it's just a bit, well, duplicated.

    Windsor & Eaton Riverside is located right at the bottom of the hill from the Castle and gets you…read morevery close to town. This is a good overground train station with trains that go to Waterloo station in Central London. Having this line makes a day trip out of London to Windsor very easy and affordable if you do not want to take a tour on a tour bus. For us, we were able to find a late morning train and got to Windsor & Eaton in around a half hour. The train was nice and air conditioned and when we pulled into the station it was easy to exit and find our way to the items on our list including a trip to the castle and a boat tour. The attendants at the station were very nice when we returned and let us know which train we needed to board. The station is small but it does have two platforms and a little news stand with refreshments.

    Really, it's receiving the 3rd star because it's so close to the Tesco that you can escape the…read moredreariness until your bus comes. Other than that, while it's a covered station (really, it's the bottom level of a parking garage/car park) the sides are open, which doesn't protect you from the temps. But at least it's easy to navigate, and the stands are clearly marked and arranged by direction (e.g., all buses to Windsor leave from stand 8).

    Slough Borough Council built it in June 2011, it cost a cool 12M…read more so they could "make a statement" to show Slough deserves a second look. They forgot about the basic needs of someone waiting for a bus. The buses are not that frequent...between every 30 minutes to around 90 minutes. A three mile journey to the residential areas can easily take over 30 minutes, plus waiting time. The only shelter is provided to the BUS DRIVERS who have an air conditioned canteen The PAYING COMMUTER gets treated like dirt, that is why they pay a bomb for the so called "service" and have to tolerate THIRD WORLD conditions: NO PROTECTION from wind, rain or snow NO ADEQUATE SEATS NO TOILETS NO WAITING ROOM it's only useful if you are coming from the train station to Windsor or Heathrow where buses are a bit more frequent. For locals it is a taxpayers nightmare, especially for the elderly and disabled, or those with young children, pushchairs or heavy bags. The old station was really ugly This new station is really useless
