Shigatse railway station (simplified Chinese: 日喀则站; traditional Chinese: 日喀則站; pinyin: Rìkāzé zhàn), officially Xigazê, is a railway station in Shigatse, Tibet Autonomous Region, China. It lies in Jiacuoxiong Township, Samzhubzê District. The station officially opened for operations on 16 August 2014.^[1]

The Shigatse passenger railway station is large compared to current needs as it has five tracks serving two island platforms and a single side platform. Islands reserved for expansion include international (or at least to the border) plans for China–India railway link to Yadong as well as a China–Nepal railway link to Gyirong and at some point, Kathmandu.
