Tukwila is a train station serving the city of Tukwila, Washington. It was built by Sound Transit along BNSF Railway tracks in Tukwila. The station is served by Sound Transit's Sounder South Line trains, Amtrak Cascades trains and King County Metro buses. The station is located within a five-minute drive from Westfield Southcenter mall and Seattle–Tacoma International Airport
On 3 November 2011, the US Department of Transportation announced a $7.9 million grant to Washington State for the construction of a new intermodal station to replace the temporary facility then in use at Tukwila. Ground was broken for the new station in June 2013.
