History

The railway station was opened on 21 December 1847 on the first portion of what would become the Berks and Hants Line between Template:Stnlink and Template:Stnlink.[2]

Layout

Theale has three platforms. Platforms 1 and 2 serve the up and down main line, and platform 3 is a former goods loop upgraded to passenger standards in 2011.[3]

Plans to upgrade facilities at the station were announced in 2013 by Network Rail and GWR (including new lifts, a new pedestrian entrance and accessible footbridge, extra car parking, and a new ticket office), but the £2.9 million project has been delayed several times and by summer 2016 was running more than three years behind schedule.[4] The upgrade project was resumed in 2021.[5] The accessible footbridge and lifts were completed in January 2025.[6]
