SWR to run a fast train between Isleworth and Waterloo


SWR to run a fast train between Isleworth and Waterloo
The Issue
Isleworth is a very busy station and currently has no fast services direct to Waterloo.
The current journey time of around 40 minutes is just not acceptable and I implore South Western Railway to take this request seriously and look into putting on some faster trains.
With four trains through Isleworth per hour in each direction it would seem reasonable that some of these be made faster running services for those not needing to alight at the stations in between.
The other side of the Hounslow loop has a twice-hourly faster service from Waterloo to Hounslow, which, when stopping at Whitton, takes only 28 minutes.
We request that SWR conduct a thorough assessment of the viability of the faster service between Isleworth and London Waterloo as soon as practicable.
