Kilkenny railway station (MacDonagh Station, Irish: Stáisiún Mhic Dhonnchadha) serves the city of Kilkenny in County Kilkenny.

It is a station on the Dublin to Waterford intercity route.[1] and was given the name MacDonagh on 10 April 1966 in commemoration of Thomas MacDonagh, one of the executed leaders of the Easter Rising of 1916.

It is on a short spur off the main railway line, at a distance of approximately 4.5 km from the Lavistown Loop Line. This requires trains to exit the station in the same direction from which they entered. This meant shunting the locomotive from one end of the train to the other. Today the use of IE 22000 Class railcars has eliminated the need for this procedure.
