Queenborough railway station is on the Sheerness Line, on the Isle of Sheppey in north Kent, and serves the town of Queenborough. Train services are provided by Southeastern.
[edit] Services
The typical off-peak service from the station is two trains per hour to Sheerness-on-Sea, and two trains per hour to Sittingbourne, for connections to London.
On the northbound of the 2 platforms, there is a substantial and historic 2-storey building which contains a ticket office on the ground floor; this is staffed on a part-time basis. In 2008, a PERTIS self-service ticket machine was installed here, at the entrance to the northbound platform.
