National Park railway station was a railway station in South Australia located on the Adelaide-Wolseley line in the suburb of Belair and within the boundaries of the Belair National Park.[2][1]
It consisted of one 80 metre platform with a waiting shelter. The station was popular with bike riders on weekends. The station closed on 23 September 1987, when the State Transport Authority withdrew Bridgewater line services between Belair and Bridgewater. The platform and shelter shed have since been demolished.
