History

The line through Frimley is a link between the Waterloo to Reading line at Ascot and the Waterloo-Alton line at Ash Vale, although the line south from here initially joined the Woking to Basingstoke main line at Sturt Lane Junction. The station building was built in 1877 by the London and South Western Railway to serve this line, with the link to Ash Vale being opened the following year. The line was later electrified in January 1939.^[1] The line becomes single south of the station and remains so as far as the junction with the line from Brookwood just short of Ash Vale station.

All services at Frimley are operated by South Western Railway using Class 450 EMUs.
