Longcross railway station is next to Longcross Garden Village (Upper Longcross) in Surrey, England. It straddles the former parishes of Virginia Water and Lyne and Longcross (a current civil parish) in part of the large wooded sandy heath known as Surrey Heath, larger than the district of the same name. It is 25 miles 11 chains (40.5 km) down the line from London Waterloo and is served as a minor stop by South Western Railway on the Waterloo–Reading line.
