A woman has been rushed to hospital after she was hit by a train at a station on a major line into Heathrow Airport.
Police and ambulance crews were called to West Ealing station at 11.30am after reports of the incident.
The Air Ambulance also landed nearby as paramedics raced to the station.
A spokesman for the London Ambulance Service said: “We treated a woman at the scene for multiple injuries and took her as a priority to a major trauma centre in west London."
British Transport Police say the incident is not being treated as suspicious.
