Heathrow Terminal 5 is a London underground tube station located in Travelcard zone 6. It is a terminus station of the Piccadilly line services, as well as Heathrow Express services and since 2022 the Elizabeth line services, which all share the same station. The Piccadilly line services are run from platforms 5 and 6.
The station is managed by Heathrow Express and is one of the few stations in the network not owned by the London Underground.
Heathrow Terminal 5 station was opened on 27 March 2008 together with the Terminal 5 of the airport. It became the first stretch of new Underground railway in London since the Jubilee line extension in 1999.
For the etymology of the word "Heathrow", please check out the Heathrow Terminal 4 post.

I visited the station only once, in January 2023. The pictures below are from that visit.
