Penny railway station is on the Canadian National Railway mainline in Penny, British Columbia. Via Rail's Jasper – Prince Rupert train calls at the station as a flag stop.

The station was built by the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway in 1914. The station burned down in a 1947 fire and the station building from Lindup, British Columbia was moved to this location. The station building was again moved in 1988 to the Prince George Railway Museum.

Penny no longer receives mail by train. The service was cut off in January 2014.
