Awaba railway station is a train station located near Newcastle, New South Wales, Australia at Awaba on the Main North railway line. It is served by electric trains of CityRail's Newcastle & Central Coast Line service. The station opened in 1887,[1] and consists of two side platforms.

In 1993, the original weatherboard station building on the down platform was damaged in a fire and consequently demolished.[2] It was subsequently replaced by the present lighter-weight structure.
