Parafield railway station is a railway station on the Gawler railway line which is located in the northern Adelaide suburbs of Parafield and Parafield Gardens. The station was originally opened in 1928 to serve the then under construction airport adjacent to the line. In 1982, the station was rebuilt at the same time as standardisation of the mainline from Adelaide to Port Pirie. Commencing in April 2008, the station was rebuilt again. It is located 17.7km by railway from the Adelaide Railway Station.
