Ranui Railway Station is located on the Western Line of the Auckland rail network. It serves the communities of Ranui and Pooks Road, in the suburbs of Waitakere City.
Services
Suburban train services between Swanson and Britomart are provided by Transdev on behalf of Auckland Transport.
Stabling project
As part of upgrades to Auckland's urban rail network, ARTA had proposed building a stabling yard to store up to 11 trains to the west of the station. The yard was to be used to clean trains when out of service. As part of the facility there was to be staff car parking and welfare facilities but due to opposition from locals this was abandoned and moved to Henderson.
