Cherrybrook is a rapid transit station being built by the Northwest Rapid Transit (NRT) consortium at Castle Hill Road, Cherrybrook, in Sydney, Australia. The station is being built as part of Transport for New South Wales's Sydney Metro Northwest project, to serve future train services to Rouse Hill and Chatswood. The station is planned to eventually serve trains to the Sydney central business district, Bankstown and Hurstville as part of the government's 20-year Sydney's Rail Future strategy.

The NSW Government announced a future railway line through the Cherrybrook area, from Epping to Castle Hill, as part of its Action for Public Transport strategy in 1998. (The document did not specifically list any intermediate stations, however.) A more specific but longer-term plan presented by Co-ordinator General of Rail Ron Christie three years later listed possible stations at Koala Park, West Pennant Hills, and Highs Road, also in West Pennant Hills.

In 2002, Transport Minister Carl Scully announced the notional Koala Park and Highs Road sites would be served by a single station at Franklin Road, Cherrybrook, to be called Franklin Road. This site faces Castle Hill Road, like its predecessors, and is roughly halfway between the two. Franklin Road Station remained part of successive north-western rail proposals, including the Metropolitan Rail Expansion Strategy in 2005 and a short-lived metro proposal in 2008.
