Khlong Tan railway station (Thai: สถานีรถไฟคลองตัน) is a railway station in Bang Kapi Subdistrict, Huai Khwang District, Bangkok. The station is a part of eastern railway line and is a class 2 railway station located 9.851NaN1 from Hua Lamphong (Bangkok railway station).

Khlong Tan railway station is tucked away in a lane on the side of outbound Phetchaburi Road (portion New Phetchaburi) opposite Ekkamai Nuea Junction, where Ekkamai combines Phetchaburi Roads.

In the 1970s, the environment around the station retained a rural atmosphere. When passengers get off the train and walk out onto the main road, they must cross a wooden bridge across the ditch first.

The Airport Rail Link passes through this station on its own elevated viaduct, but does not stop at this station. Instead, the closest stations to the Airport Rail Link are at Asok Halt and Ramkaehang (Sukhumvit 71) stations.
