Kitchener station is a railway station located in Kitchener, Ontario, Canada, slightly to the northeast of downtown Kitchener, at 126 Weber Street West, near the corner of Victoria Street. It is a heritage building[1] containing a waiting room and ticket counter built beside a set of tracks also used as a freight yard. A separate building to the east of the passenger area, originally built in 1925 as a freight building,[3] now serves as the headquarters for the Goderich–Exeter Railway.

The station is served by GO Transit regional trains operating between Kitchener and Toronto, Via Rail intercity trains operating between Sarnia and Toronto via London, and GO Transit regional buses operating between Kitchener and Bramalea.[4]
