Thirroul railway station is located on the Illawarra line in New South Wales, Australia. It serves the northern Wollongong suburb of Thirroul.
The station opened on 21 June 1887 as Robbinsville and was renamed Thirroul in November 1891.
The Platform 1 weatherboard building was relocated from Scarborough in 1915 when the line was duplicated. In 1939 the original platform was converted to an island platform. Until the 1960s, Thirroul Railway Depot existed to the north of the station.
Thirroul has one side platform and one island platform with two faces. It is serviced by NSW TrainLink South Coast line services travelling between Sydney Central, Bondi Junction and Kiama, as well as local services from Waterfall to Port Kembla. Some Port Kembla services also terminate at Thirroul.
