On the Underground network it is on the District and Hammersmith & City lines between Plaistow and Bromley-by-Bow and the Jubilee line between Stratford and Canning Town.

On the main line West Ham is 4 miles 7 chains (6.6 km) from the London terminus at Fenchurch Street and is situated between Limehouse and Barking, with services currently operated by c2c.
The station was opened in 1901 by the London, Tilbury and Southend Railway on the route from Fenchurch Street to Barking that was opened in 1858.
