Adelaide railway station is the central terminus of the Adelaide Metro railway system. All lines approach the station from the west, and it is a terminal station with no through lines, with most of the traffic on the metropolitan network either departing or terminating here. It has nine below-ground platforms, all using broad gauge track. The station is located on the north side of North Terrace, west of Parliament House.
The Adelaide Casino occupies the majority of the station building, which no longer houses railway administrators. Until 1984, Adelaide station was also the terminus for regional and interstate passenger trains, but regional passenger train services ceased to exist in South Australia and all interstate services are handled at Adelaide Parklands Terminal.
