Islington Works railway station was located on the
Gawler railway line located in the inner northern Adelaide suburbs of Regency Park and Kilburn to serve the adjacent Islington Railway Workshops
.
It is located 6.6 kilometres (4.1 mi) from Adelaide station, but is now closed, along with the workshop. Both platforms are 50 metres in length. The station was first closed in 2000, with all trains running express, and demolished in 2020, due to the Gawler line electrification project.
To the west of the station lies the
Adelaide-Crystal Brook line
.
