Uşak railway station (Turkish: Uşak garı) is a railway station in Uşak, Turkey and is the only station within the city. TCDD Taşımacılık operates a daily inter-city train from İzmir to Konya and a daily regional train to İzmir.[1]

The station was originally built by the Smyrna Cassaba Railway in 1887 as part of their railway from Smyrna (modern-day İzmir) to Karahisar.[2] Uşak station consists of a single side platform, serving one track. The four other tracks are used for storing passenger cars during layovers as well as freight cars.
