It's on the [[Category Piccadilly Line|Piccadilly Line]], but not all 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 4 should either take a train indicated to Terminals 1/2/3 in the first place, or change at Hatton Cross.
