Trudering station is an interchange station of the Munich S-Bahn and the Munich U-Bahn in the borough of Trudering-Riem in the Bavarian capital of Munich.

Trudering station was opened on 15 October 1871 at the same time as the Munich–Rosenheim railway. On 1 October 1938, Trudering station was renamed as Bahnhof München-Trudering (Munich–Trudering station). The former station building was demolished in the 1970s. On 28 May 1972 it has been integrated into the network of the Munich S-Bahn. Since 1979, the S-Bahn has had its own tracks through Trudering.

The U-Bahn station was opened on line U 2 under Truderinger Straße on 29 May 1999. During the construction of the tunnel on 20 September 1994, a cavity opened up below the road due to water penetration and a bus crashed in the resulting crater, leading to the death of two passengers and a construction worker. This delayed the completion of the tunnel to Riem and the station until 1999.

Trudering station has ten tracks, two of which have a platform. Tracks 1 and 2 have no platforms and are used for long-distance and regional services on the Munich–Rosenheim railway.

Tracks 3 and 4 are located on a 238 m long and 96 cm high central platform and is served by the S-Bahn. Track 3 is used by S-Bahn services towards Zorneding and track 4 is used by S-Bahn services towards Munich. There are two entrances, both connecting to a passenger tunnel. In addition, a lift connects the platform with the eastern tunnel.

Tracks 5 and 6 are part of the Munich North Ring, which runs from Daglfing station in the west to meet the Munich–Rosenheim railway. They are therefore mainly used by freight trains. About 1.2 kilometres east of the station the main freight tracks cross under the S-Bahn and connect with the mainline tracks at a flying junction. Tracks 7–10 are used as sidings for freight trains and suburban railcars. To the west of the station, the three lines are interconnected at sets of points.

Trudering U-Bahn station is under Truderinger Straße and is located on the second trunk line of the Munich U-Bahn network. It is operated as the eastern branch of the U2 line.

The station was built using the shield tunnelling method so that the central platform is divided between two platforms in tubes. These are joined together by two cross passages. Since the station is on a curve, the platforms are staggered. The side walls are painted in bright red, the standard colour for line U2. At this station the name is written in white. The other design elements are decorated in shades of grey. The inner walls of the platforms and parts of the ceiling are clad with aluminum. The floor was designed with light and dark gray granite. At a depth of 24 metres, Trudering U-Bahn station is one of the deepest U-Bahn stations in Munich.
