Kilo railway station ( _fi. Kilon rautatieasema, _sv. Kilo järnvägsstation) is a station on the VR commuter rail network on the Rantarata line located in Kilo, a district of the city of Espoo in Finland. It is situated between Leppävaara railway station and Kera railway station, approximately convert|13|km|mi northwest/west of Helsinki Central railway station.

History

Before the current Kilo station building was built, only a small wood-heated cabin stood on the site. The larger wooden building, having previously served as the station building, was torn down in the early 1980s, but the white house of the track guardian still stands between Kilo and Kera stations.

In the 1980s, there was a small factory south of the tracks, right next to the station, but it was torn down, and many low-rise apartment buildings have been built in its place. The level crossing to the west of the station was removed in the middle of the 1990s and replaced by a tunnel east of the station.
