About your departure station
Opened in 1848 as part of the London Brighton line, Ifield served rural Sussex until Crawley's postwar expansion.
The station was rebuilt in 1932 when electrification reached the area.
Ifield became crucial for New Town commuters from the 1950s.
The original wooden station burned down in 1963 and was replaced with functional buildings.
The station's history reflects Crawley's transformation from village to major town.
Recent upgrades improved accessibility, but Ifield remains overshadowed by Crawley's main station, serving mainly local residents rather than long distance travelers.
