Railway stations in Ethiopia

The following list contains dedicated railway stations with at least a single platform for passengers to enter or to leave trains.

Railway stations mostly have a single platform for passengers to enter or to leave trains.

The platforms are roofed to protect passengers against sun, wind and rain.

The outer appearance of station buildings of the Addis Ababa–Djibouti Railway shows some sort of architectural eclecticism including Ethiopian elements with some Chinese interpretation and rounded elements.

Only the two main cities along the line (Addis Ababa, Dire Dawa) saw bigger and dedicated station buildings with platforms.

Most railway stations were composed of very simple single-room buildings, sometimes open without walls, sometimes closed, sometimes like goats sheds.

Three types of railway stations exist: open, abandoned and defunct.
