Parafield Gardens railway station is located on the Gawler line.[1] Situated adjacent to Parafield Airport, in the northern Adelaide suburb of Parafield Gardens, it is 16.6 kilometres (10.3 mi) from Adelaide station.

History[]

Parafield Gardens was first opened on 1 May 1968.

It is one of only two stations on the Gawler Central line to have a pedestrian underpass (the other is Greenfields). The other stations have had theirs closed due to concerns with safety and vandalism.[citation needed] To the west of the station lies the Australian Rail Track Corporation standard gauge line to Crystal Brook.
