It is situated on the High Street, opposite Castle Hill, the main public entrance to Windsor Castle.
Originally named simply Windsor, the station was renamed to Windsor & Eton Central on 26 September 1949.
The station is the terminus of the Slough to Windsor & Eton line. Windsor's other station, Windsor and Eton Riverside, is the terminus for the South West Trains service from London Waterloo. The station opened in 1849.
