Maynooth railway station serves the town of Maynooth in north County Kildare, Ireland. It is situated on the south side of the Royal Canal, opposite Dukes' Harbour. Access to Maynooth is by either the footbridge to the west, which leads to the Main Street of Maynooth; west along the canal walk to residential areas of the town, or via the road bridges to the east, which lead north to the older part of Maynooth, or south to the newer areas.

The footbridge crossing the tracks and connecting the two platforms was originally situated at Lansdowne Road railway station.[1]

The station is an interchange point between Commuter services between Dublin and Longford and the longer distance InterCity services between Dublin and Sligo which call at Drumcondra before Connolly. At present, many Rosslare line services also terminate at Maynooth, this will end upon the introduction of the IE Class 22000 railcars on the Rosslare line. From Maynooth onwards to Sligo, the line is single track, the line being double track from Maynooth to Bray.
