Paldiski railway station (Estonian: Paldiski raudteejaam) is a railway station serving the town and Baltic Sea port of Paldiski, situated on the Pakri Peninsula of northwestern Estonia.[2]

The station is the western terminus of the Tallinn-Paldiski railway. The station opened in 1870 when a railway line was opened connecting Saint Petersburg with Paldiski, via Gatchina, Narva, Tapa and Tallinn.[3] Currently, the station is served by Tallinn's commuter rail network, an electrified commuter rail network operated by Elron, linking the city of Tallinn with its suburbs and the surrounding countryside.[1]
