Swastika station is a bus stop and former railway station located in the community of Swastika, Ontario, Canada. The railway station was established in 1908 along the Temiskaming and Northern Ontario Railway, now the Ontario Northland Railway line.[2][unreliable source][3] The site of the former station continues to be served as a flag stop for intercity bus routes operated by Ontario Northland Motor Coach Services.
The stop will be renamed Kirkland Lake and a new heated passenger shelter will be constructed on the site between 2024–2026 in preparation for ONR resuming its Northlander passenger train service in the mid-2020s.[4][5]
