Ford railway station is a railway station in Ford, West Sussex, England. It is located on the West Coastway Line which runs between Brighton and Southampton and it is 60 miles 48 chains (97.5 km) down the line from London Bridge via Redhill. The station and the trains serving it are operated by Southern. The station is on a notably busy section of line and has low capacity; due to this delays are frequent especially to the east of the station. The line to the east of the station has a visibly high gradient, from the view from the platform, as the track climes over the high banked River Arun. A busy level crossing is also found to the east of the station ,before the river bridge.
