Swastika railway station is located in the community of Swastika in Ontario, Canada. It was established in 1908, along the Temiskaming and Northern Ontario Railway which is now the Ontario Northland Railway line.[1]

It was a station stop for Northlander trains of Ontario Northland. That station is a fairly large building with former entrances on street and platform level but only a small waiting room off the platform is currently in passenger use. The indoor waiting room was once larger and featured a front desk and washrooms. Following the cancellation of the Northlander service in 2012, the station is now the bus stop location for Ontario Northland Motor Coach Services.
