'''West Ham''' ({{IPAc-en|ˈ|w|ɛ|s|t|_|ˈ|h|æ|m}}) is an [[interchange station]] in [[West Ham]], [[London]], England. It provides [[London Underground]], [[Docklands Light Railway]] (DLR) and [[National Rail]] services. The station was opened in 1901 by the [[London, Tilbury and Southend Railway]] on the route from Fenchurch Street to Barking. In the late 1990s, the station was rebuilt and significantly expanded as part of the [[Jubilee Line Extension]], fully opening in 1999. The station is in [[London fare zone 2]] and [[List of stations in London fare zone 3|zone 3]].

== History ==

===East to west alignment===
The [[London, Tilbury and Southend Railway]] direct line from Bow to Barking was constructed east to west through the middle of the [[West Ham (parish)|Parish of West Ham]] in 1858. Before this, trains took a longer route via Stratford and Forest Gate to the north. The new line opened with stations initially at Bromley, Plaistow and East Ham. In November 1897 [[Arnold Hills]], the owner of the [[Thames Ironworks and Shipbuilding Company]], whose football team [[Thames Ironworks F.C.]] (which reformed in 1900 as [[West Ham United F.C.|West Ham United]]) played at the [[Memorial Grounds]], secured an agreement with the  London, Tilbury and Southend Railway to build a station at the intersection of Manor Road and Memorial Avenue. The company board approved this in February 1898 and [[Mowlem]]'s was given the contract to build a four platform station, which allowed for the proposed quadrupling of the line with the completion of the [[Whitechapel and Bow Railway]]. The station was completed in May 1900, but did not open until 1 February 1901. The station was initially known as West Ham.

The [[North London Railway]] had run a daily service to Plaistow via the Bow-Bromley curve since 18 May 1869 and when West Ham opened it used the northern platforms. In 1905 they switched to the southern platforms, with the opening of a new bay platform at Plaistow on the southern side.<ref>The London & Tilbury Railway vol 1 page 41 by Peter Kay {{ISBN|1-899890-10-6}}</ref> The Whitechapel and Bow Railway allowed through services of the [[Metropolitan District Railway]] to operate through West Ham to Upminster from 1902. The Metropolitan District converted to electric trains in 1905 and services were cut back to East Ham. The London, Tilbury and Southend Railway trains from Fenchurch Street used the southern platforms when the Metropolitan District services began but stopping was reduced to a few a week in 1908 and to nil in 1913. Ownership of the station passed to the [[Midland Railway]] in 1912 and the [[London, Midland and Scottish Railway]] in 1923. The station was renamed '''West Ham (Manor Road)''' on 11 February 1924. When the North London Railway service to Plaistow ceased on 1 January 1916 the southern platforms were unused in normal service.

The Metropolitan District Railway was incorporated into [[London Passenger Transport Board|London Transport]] in 1933, and became known as the [[District line]]. Hammersmith & City line services started, as part of the Metropolitan line, in 1936. The southern platforms were removed after war damage in 1940 which had completely closed the station from 7 September 1940 until 11 August 1941.<ref>The London, Tilbury & Southend Railway vol 2 page 113 by Peter Kay {{ISBN|1-899890-19-X}}</ref> After [[Transport Act 1947|nationalisation of the railways]] in 1948 management of the station passed to [[British Rail]]ways.  In 1969 ownership was transferred to the [[London Underground]] and the station was renamed back to West Ham on 1 January.

On 15 March 1976, nine people were injured here by an [[West Ham station attack|explosion on a train]] by a member of the [[Provisional IRA]]. Julius Stephen, the driver of the train, was shot dead at the scene when he attempted to pursue the fleeing bomber.<ref name=":0">{{cite news|title=Onthis Day|url=https://news.bbc.co.uk/onthisday/hi/dates/stories/march/15/newsid_2543000/2543605.stm|website=BBC News|access-date=17 October 2017|date=15 March 1976}}</ref>

As part of the [[Jubilee Line Extension]], the station was completely rebuilt, with reconstructed District and Hammersmith and City line platforms.<ref name=":7">{{Cite web |date=2015-09-10 |title=West Ham Station |url=http://www.jesticowhiles.com/projects/transport/west-ham-station/ |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150910232859/http://www.jesticowhiles.com/projects/transport/west-ham-station/ |archive-date=10 Sep 2015 |access-date=2024-11-30 |website=Jestico + Whiles}}</ref> In addition, platforms were re-established on the [[London, Tilbury and Southend line|main line]] from Fenchurch Street, now operated by [[c2c]].<ref>{{cite press release |title=New station planned for West Ham |date=6 June 1997 |publisher=Railtrack plc |location= |url=https://www.railhub2.co.uk/rh7/archive/arc_article.php?doc=1997-06-06%20RTK-001 |access-date=2024-10-02 |author=<!--Not stated--> |agency=}}</ref> As part of the work, the existing entrance was closed, and the refurbished ticket hall became a connecting concourse to the new ticket hall and the rest of the station.

The island platform for c2c services, along with the access staircases, are narrow and get easily congested. To ensure safety for passengers, staff must be present on the platforms at peak times. c2c have proposed an escalator to replace the stairs. The construction of an additional platform for westbound trains would eliminate the problem.<ref>{{cite web |last1=Steel |first1=Theo |title=Will c2c continue to grow? |url=https://www.modernrailways.com/article/will-c2c-continue-grow |publisher=Modern Railways |access-date=7 February 2023 |date=27 August 2020}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=Essex Thameside Study |url=https://www.networkrail.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/Essex-Thameside-Study.pdf |publisher=Network Rail |access-date=7 February 2023 |date=July 2020}}</ref> 

==== London 2012 Summer and Paralympic Games ====
[[File:Olympic footbridge at West Ham station.JPG|left|thumb|The footbridge that served the Olympic exit to The Greenway in 2012.]]The station was temporarily modified to allow it to cope with an increase in passenger numbers during the [[London 2012]] Olympic and Paralympic Games. A footbridge was constructed to connect the station to the [[Greenway, London|Greenway]] foot and cycle path, which connects directly to the [[London Olympic Park|Olympic Park]] in Stratford.<ref>{{Cite web|title=New footbridge planned to avoid the 2012 Olympics crush|url=https://www.eastlondonadvertiser.co.uk/news/new-footbridge-planned-to-avoid-the-2012-olympics-crush-1-666995|website=East London Advertiser|date=26 November 2008|language=en|access-date=2020-05-29|archive-date=29 October 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201029141941/https://www.eastlondonadvertiser.co.uk/news/new-footbridge-planned-to-avoid-the-2012-olympics-crush-1-666995|url-status=dead}}</ref>

Work began in January 2011, with the construction of temporary stairs and a walkway from the eastern end of the District line platforms, over the eastbound track and running back parallel to the platform ending at Manor Road. The footbridge was demolished in mid-October 2012, following the end of the [[2012 Summer Paralympics]]. The foundations of the temporary footbridge have been left for possible use in future expansion of the station.<ref>{{Cite web|title=West Ham Station gets Olympic footbridge|url=http://www.trl.co.uk/trl-news-hub/transport-news/latest-transport-news/west_ham_station_gets_olympic_footbridge.htm|date=4 December 2009|website=TRL.co.uk|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://archive.today/20130505103121/http://www.trl.co.uk/trl-news-hub/transport-news/latest-transport-news/west_ham_station_gets_olympic_footbridge.htm|archive-date=2013-05-05|access-date=2020-05-29}}</ref>
A double-ended [[centre siding]] east of West Ham was constructed to compensate for lost reversing capacity caused by the rebuilding of [[Whitechapel station]] as part of [[Crossrail]] work.<ref>{{cite web|title=TheRailwayCentre.Com|url=http://www.therailwaycentre.com/UK%20News%20Pages%20Sept%2006/110906_XRAil.html|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20061128192209/http://www.therailwaycentre.com/UK%20News%20Pages%20Sept%2006/110906_XRAil.html|url-status=usurped|archive-date=28 November 2006|publisher=TheRailwayCentre.Com|access-date=5 August 2010}}</ref> This was commissioned on 17 January 2011.<ref>Underground News March 2011 page 173 {{ISSN|0306-8617}}</ref>

===North to south alignment===
The [[Eastern Counties and Thames Junction Railway]] was constructed north to south through West Ham, linking Stratford with Canning Town in 1846. Platforms were constructed on the line at West Ham and opened on 14 May 1979 when the [[Crosstown Linkline]] service began between Camden Road and [[North Woolwich railway station|North Woolwich]].<ref>Batten, M. (2020). East London Railways: From Docklands to Crossrail. United Kingdom: Amberley Publishing.</ref> The Crosstown Linkline was replaced with the electric [[North London Line]] service between Richmond and North Woolwich on 13 May 1985. In the 1990s, the station was comprehensively rebuilt as part of the [[Jubilee Line Extension]], designed by [[van Heyningen and Haward Architects]]. A new bridge crosses four rail lines and a main road, to connect the [[Jubilee line]] and [[North London line]] platforms with the new ticket hall and the rest of the station.<ref name=":1" /> [[Jubilee line]] services began on 14 May 1999.<ref>Horne, M: ''The Jubilee Line'', page 79. Capital Transport Publishing, 2000.</ref> North London Line services at the station ceased on 9 December 2006, when the line from Stratford to North Woolwich was closed, to allow for the line to be converted for the [[Docklands Light Railway]]. The platforms reopened on 31 August 2011 as part of the extension to [[Stratford International extension|Stratford International]].<ref>{{Cite web|title=Docklands Light Railway extension marks one year to go to the London 2012 Paralympic Games|url=https://tfl.gov.uk/info-for/media/press-releases/2011/august/docklands-light-railway-extension-marks-one-year-to-go-to-the-london-2012-paralympic-games|date=31 August 2011|website=Transport for London|language=en-GB|access-date=2020-05-29}}</ref>

==== TwelveTrees Park entrance ====
As part of the TwelveTrees Park development southwest of the station on the former [[Parcelforce]] distribution depot, a new station entrance is being built to connect to the upper Jubilee line concourse.<ref name=":2">{{Cite web |title=TwelveTrees Park {{!}} New Homes in West Ham |url=https://www.berkeleygroup.co.uk/ |access-date=2022-10-23 |website=Berkeley Group |language=en}}</ref><ref name=":3">{{Cite web |last=Smith |first=John |date=2022-05-26 |title=West Ham development Twelvetrees Park now rising: New station entrance planned |url=https://www.fromthemurkydepths.co.uk/2022/05/26/west-ham-development-twelvetrees-park-now-rising-new-station-entrance-planned/ |access-date=2022-10-23 |website=Murky Depths |language=en-GB}}</ref> As well as this, two new pedestrian bridges over the railway will be built.<ref name=":2" /><ref name=":3" />

==Design and architecture==
The station was rebuilt as part of the [[Jubilee Line Extension]] in the 1990s.<ref name=":4">{{Cite book |author=Bennett, David |title=Architecture of the Jubilee Line Extension |date=2004 |publisher=Thomas Telford |isbn=0727730886 |location=London |oclc=51870430}}</ref><ref name=":5">{{Cite web |last= |first= |title=West Ham Station |url=https://vhh.co.uk/project/west-ham-station/ |access-date=2024-01-25 |website=vHH |language=en-US}}</ref> The majority of the station design was by [[van Heyningen and Haward Architects]], with the District and Hammersmith and City line platforms designed by [[Jestico + Whiles]].<ref name=":7" /> 

The station design was considered to evoke work by [[Charles Holden]] in the 1930s, with use of brick and glass blocks, as well as a clock tower.<ref name=":4" /><ref name=":6">{{Cite news |last=Glancey |first=Jonathan |date=2000-01-29 |title=East meets West |url=https://www.theguardian.com/travel/2000/jan/29/london.unitedkingdom |access-date=2024-01-25 |work=The Guardian |language=en-GB |issn=0261-3077}}</ref> The station was designed in 27 weeks, and was the cheapest of the new stations to be built.<ref name=":5" /> Critics called the station "effortlessly elegant"<ref name=":5" /> and an "impressive architectural essay in brick, concrete and glass".<ref name=":6" /> It was later awarded a [[Royal Fine Art Commission]] Trust Award.<ref name=":5" />

The station consists of four sets of [[island platform]]s, two on an elevated east–west alignment and another perpendicular pair at street level, giving a total of eight platform faces. The existing entrance was closed, with the old ticket hall refurbished to become a connecting concourse to the [[District line|District]] and [[Hammersmith & City line|Hammersmith & City]] line platforms and the (new) [[c2c]] platforms. A new ticket hall - facing onto Manor Road - connects this concourse to the [[Jubilee line]] and [[North London line]] platforms via a high level bridge that spans four rail lines and a main road. The station building and connecting passageways are finished in a mixture of red brick, concrete and glass, inspired by Charles Holden.<ref name=":1" /><ref>{{Cite book|last=Cherry, Bridget.|title=London. 5, East|date=2005|publisher=Yale University Press|others=O'Brien, Charles., Pevsner, Nikolaus, 1902-1983.|isbn=0-300-10701-3|location=New Haven, CT|oclc=57431801}}</ref> The station was built at a fraction of the cost of other [[Jubilee Line Extension]] stations, just £10.5m compared to over £100m at stations like [[Canary Wharf tube station|Canary Wharf]].<ref>{{Cite web|title=West Ham Station, Jubilee Line Extension {{!}} van Heyningen and Haward Architects|url=https://www.vhh.co.uk/our-work/west-ham-station-jubilee-line-extension-f5acd96b-8e9f-4baf-b183-9480a3a12c5d|website=www.vhh.co.uk|access-date=2020-05-29}}</ref>

At the upper level, the northern island platform (Platform 1 and 2) are used by [[District line]] and [[Hammersmith & City line]] trains, and the southern island platform (Platforms 7 and 8) are used by [[c2c]] trains. At the lower level, the western island platform (Platforms 5 and 6) are used by [[Jubilee line]] trains, with the eastern island platform (Platforms 3 and 4) - formerly the [[North London line]] platforms - are now used by [[Docklands Light Railway]] trains.

Jubilee line trains can terminate here to enter into the nearby [[Stratford Market Depot]]. This is regularly used during peak times/at the end of the working day. Secondly, there is a crossover to the south of the DLR platforms so that trains can reverse early and head back south. Additionally there is a siding that opened in 2011 east of the sub-surface line platforms so that trains from both directions can terminate.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Detailled London transport map (track, depot, ...) |url=https://cartometro.com/cartes/metro-tram-london/ |access-date=2023-06-02 |website=cartometro.com}}</ref>

== Incidents ==
{{See also|West Ham station attack}}
On 15 March 1976, seven people were injured by a [[Provisional IRA]] bomb on a Metropolitan line train. The terrorist then shot and killed the train's driver Julius Stephen.<ref>{{cite web|title=1976: Tube driver shot dead|url=https://news.bbc.co.uk/onthisday/hi/dates/stories/march/15/newsid_2543000/2543605.stm|year=2008|website=BBC On This Day|access-date=11 November 2017}}</ref><ref name=":0" />

== Location ==
The station is located at the corner of Durban Road and Manor Road, in the [[London Borough of Newham]]. The station is named after the former [[County Borough of West Ham|parish and borough of West Ham]] within which it was located to the west of the centre. The neighbourhood of [[West Ham]] is located some distance to the north-east. Since [[West Ham United F.C.|West Ham United Football Club]] moved to the [[Boleyn Ground]] in 1904, the station is no longer located near their home ground. East London Rugby Football Club is situated nearby on Holland Road, which is also home to [[Kings Cross Steelers]] RFC and Phantoms RFC.<ref>{{cite web|title=Phantoms RFC|url=http://www.phantomsrfc.com/|publisher=Phantoms RFC|access-date=5 August 2010|archive-date=26 July 2010|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100726134437/http://www.phantomsrfc.com/|url-status=dead}}</ref>
