Kidbrooke railway station serves Kidbrooke in the London Borough of Greenwich, south-east London. The station and all trains serving it are operated by Southeastern.
The station is on the Bexleyheath line, and was one of the original stations opened on 1 May 1895. The original station buildings have been replaced with more modern structures. On the west of the station is the short Kidbrooke Tunnel.
Trains run east to Dartford (with a few extended to Gravesend or the Medway Towns, and a few rush-hour trains diverted to Slade Green), and west to Charing Cross or Victoria. The daytime service is one train every half an hour to each of the two London termini, resulting in a 15 minute frequency as far west as Lewisham. It is in Travelcard Zone 3.
During periods of engineering work in the Charing Cross area, some services deviate to Cannon Street.
On the north side of the station is a bus turning and waiting area from which run the 178 and B16 services.
