West Croydon railway station is located on the Grange, Outer Harbor and Port Dock lines.

The West Croydon station was developed as a result of a meeting between local residents and the Railway Commissioner in 1914.

Initially, the station was to be called York, after a nearby subdivision, but the naming was changed to its current form.

In 2016, a nearby primary school painted six large signs that were added to the station's south platform as part of a program to decorate stations across Adelaide.
