Sant Adrià de Besòs and Estació de Sant Adrià (Catalan for "Sant Adrià Station") are a Rodalies de Catalunya commuter rail station and a Trambesòs tram stop, respectively, together forming an interchange station complex in Sant Adrià de Besòs, to the north-east of Barcelona, in Catalonia, Spain. The Rodalies de Catalunya station is on the Barcelona to Maçanet-Massanes via Mataró railway, between Barcelona El Clot-Aragó and Badalona. It is operated by Renfe Operadora and is served by Barcelona commuter rail service line R1 and Girona commuter rail service line RG1. The Trambesòs stop is the northern terminus of routes T4 and T6 and is operated by TRAM.

Although the Barcelona–Mataró Railway, the first railway line in the Iberian Peninsula, passed through Sant Adrià de Besòs, it did not have any kind of stop in the municipality when it was opened on 18 October 1848 (1848-10-18). However, since several local factories were connected to the railway line, its opening was a major boost for the town’s economy. In 1888, with the opening of a steam tram line that travelled from Barcelona to Badalona, communications in the area were improved when a stop serving this new tram line was built in town.
