Ewell East is a railway station in Ewell, Surrey. It has two platforms, one for services to Sutton, West Croydon and London, the other for services to Epsom. The ticket office and main entrance is on the London-bound side, accessed from Cheam Road. On the Epsom-bound side, there is an additional entrance from a footpath linking the Cheam Road with Reigate Road near the North East Surrey College of Technology.

It was opened in 1847 with the Croydon and Epsom Railway. This was subsumed into the London, Brighton and South Coast Railway. Train service is now provided by Southern.

Ewell East has been part of Travelcard Zone 6 since January 2007.

Current service levels (off-peak, Monday to Friday) are:

To London

  • 1tph Cheam, Sutton, Clapham Junction, London Victoria
  • 2tph all stations via Mitcham Junction except Wandsworth Common and Battersea Park to London Victoria
  • 1tph all stations via West Croydon and Norbury to London Victoria (with a faster connection to Clapham Junction and London Victoria at Sutton). After 7pm these services run via Crystal Palace rather than Norbury.

From London

Usually one train per hour, particularly the fast service to Dorking or Horsham, does not stop at Ewell East.[citation needed]
