Lakemba railway station is a heritage-listed railway station on the Bankstown railway line in the Sydney suburb of Lakemba. It is currently closed for conversion works to enable it to be served by Metro North West & Bankstown Line services in the future.
Lakemba station opened on 14 April 1909 when the Bankstown line was extended from Belmore to Bankstown.
Previously, a shunting neck existed to the west of the station, allowing services to terminate at Lakemba. This siding was removed in the 1990s. The original wooden ticket office above the station was destroyed by fire and replaced with a modern metal and glass structure. The station received an accessibility upgrade in 2007, which included the installation of a lift.
The station closed on 30 September 2024 to facilitate the conversion of the Bankstown railway line to Sydney Metro.
A war memorial was opened outside the station on 19 April 1953 by State Governor John Northcott.
