Penally railway station serves the village of Penally in Pembrokeshire, Wales. It lies on the Pembroke Dock branch of the West Wales Line operated by Arriva Trains Wales. There are only a handful of services along this line.

Penally station was originally closed on 15 June 1964. It was reopened temporarily during the summers of 1970 and 1971 before being permanently reopened on 28 February 1972.

Trains call here every two hours in each direction, westwards to Pembroke Dock and eastwards to Whitland, Carmarthen and Swansea (where connections can be made for stations to Cardiff and destinations in England). There are a pair of through trains to Cardiff each weekday, though late evening services terminate at Carmarthen. There are four trains each way on Sundays.

Penally station was featured in the Channel 4 series Paul Merton's Secret Stations Season 1 Episode 3 broadcast on 15 May 2016. This series features British comedian Paul Merton visiting various request stop railway stations around Britain.
