Martinlaakso railway station (Finnish: Martinlaakson rautatieasema, Swedish: Mårtensdals järnvägsstation) is a Helsinki commuter rail located in Vantaa, Finland. It is approximately fourteen kilometres north of Helsinki Central railway station.

The station serves the M line between Central Helsinki and Vantaankoski, and is between the stations of Louhela and the terminus at Vantaankoski.

There are an island platform; one side for northbound and another side for southbound trains. There is one lift and a waiting room, although it is not possible to buy tickets from the station. The local bus station is situated nearby.

Prior to the construction of the station at Vantaankoski in 1991, Martinlaakso was the northern terminus for the M line (hence the name of the line). Nowadays Martinlaakso is the penultimate stop when travelling northbound, with Vantaankoski as the terminus.
