Not all Piccadilly Line trains call here; the service splits just after [[Hatton Cross Station|Hatton Cross]], with some trains (indicated "to Heathrow Terminal 5") continuing on through [[Heathrow Terminals 1, 2, And 3 Station|Terminals 1/2/3]] to Terminal 5, and others (indicated "to Heathrow Terminals 1, 2, and 3") going to [[Heathrow Terminal 4 Station|Terminal 4]] then looping round to Terminals 1/2/3 and then returning to Central London (see [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Piccadilly_T5_Extension.JPG this diagram] on Wikipedia). Passengers for Terminal 5 should either take a train indicated "to Terminal 5" in the first place, or change at Hatton Cross. (Note that at least as of early 2008, announcements on the train suggest changing at [[Hounslow West Station|Hounslow West]]; this is also a perfectly acceptable place to change, but Hatton Cross is closer to the airport, and there are buses from there to the airport in the case of service failure.)

The [[Heathrow Express]] service from [[Paddington Station|Paddington]] also terminates here.
Actually inside [[Heathrow Airport]]. The [[Heathrow Express]] services also call here.
