Ascot Park railway station is a train station located in Ascot Park, South Australia on the Noarlunga Centre line 10.2 km from Adelaide Railway Station. The station is positioned near Oaklands Road and can be reached by travelling down Joy Street or Railway Terrace. The station has two tracks, either side of an island platform with a pedestrian subway connecting the platform to the two adjacent streets. Parking (although insecure) is available on both these streets. The station is located just south of where the Tonsley line branches off, and north of the Oaklands and Marion Road overpasses. Sacred Heart College Middle school students use this quite regularly before and after school. The original 1914 station building was demolished and replaced with the current shelter in the 1970's. The station has been regarded as one of Adelaide's worst; it is not staffed and the toilets have since been closed.
