Swastika station is a bus stop and former railway station located in the community of Swastika, Ontario, Canada. The railway station was established in 1908 along the Temiskaming and Northern Ontario Railway, now the Ontario Northland Railway line. ^{[2][ unreliable source] [3]} The site of the former station continues to be served as a flag stop for intercity bus routes operated by Ontario Northland Motor Coach Services.

The stop will be renamed Kirkland Lake and a new heated passenger shelter will be constructed on the site between 2024–2026 in preparation for ONR resuming its Northlander passenger train service in the mid-2020s. ^{[4] [5]}

Swastika was a station stop for Ontario Northland's Northlander passenger trains. The station was a fairly^{[ vague]} large building with former entrances on street and platform level The indoor waiting room was once larger and featured a staffed ticket desk and washrooms, but by the end of the station's life it was un-staffed and only a small waiting room off the platform was used for passengers.

Following the cancellation of the Northlander service in 2012, Ontario Northland began demolition of the train station building on March 10, 2021; with demolition completed on May 15. As of June 2021, there is a historic locations plaque placed by Ontario Northland to commemorate this one-of-a-kind^{[ citation needed]} train station that once stood on the grass hill that is now in its location.
