Khlong Tan railway station (Thai: สถานีรถไฟคลองตัน, RTGS: Sathani Rotfai Khlong Tan, pronounced [sà.tʰǎː.niː rót.faj kʰlɔ̄ːŋ tan]) is a railway station in Bang Kapi Subdistrict, Huai Khwang District, Bangkok. The station is a part of eastern railway line and is a class 2 railway station located 9.85 km (6.1 mi) from Hua Lamphong (Bangkok railway station).
Khlong Tan railway station is tucked away in a lane on the side of outbound Phetchaburi Road, in the New Phetchaburi section, opposite Ekkamai Nuea Junction, where Ekkamai meets Phetchaburi Road.
In the 1970s, the environment around the station still retained a rural atmosphere. When passengers got off the train and walked out onto the main road, they had to cross a wooden bridge over the ditch first.
The Airport Rail Link passes through this station on its own elevated viaduct, but does not stop at this station. Instead, the closest stations to the Airport Rail Link are at Asok Halt and Ramkaehang (Sukhumvit 71) stations.
