Cringila is a NSW TrainLink Intercity railway station on the Port Kembla branch of the South Coast railway line. It serves the Wollongong suburb of Cringila.

The station has an island platform. The northern access from the platform provides access to BlueScope Steel Port Kembla Steelworks via a secured gate. The southern access is from Five Island Road. It is served by approximately one train per hour, usually a local service to Thirroul, but with extra direct trains to and from Sydney in the peak hours.

Due to vandalism, there is no ticket machine at this station, meaning that customers can only purchase tickets when the ticket office is open with staff. At other times, customers must purchase a ticket at their destination.
