Northolt Park railway station is a Network Rail station in Northolt, Greater London. It is in Cadogan Close and spans the boundary between the London Borough of Harrow and the London Borough of Ealing, with a footbridge connecting the north side (leading to Roxeth and South Harrow) to the south side (leading to Northolt and Greenford).

The service to the station has much improved (until the late 1990s only peak hour trains stopped there). There are improvements in the access to the station as part of the Petts Hill road improvement scheme.
