Geneva railway station in Switzerland, also known as Geneva Cornavin railway station, is Geneva's main train station, located in the centre of the city. The immediate area surrounding it is known as Cornavin; both names can be used interchangeably.

The third largest train station in Switzerland by passenger numbers, with 116,000 users on average per working day (figures before Léman Express network began full operation), it sees over 400 train departures every day from its eight throughplatforms. Platforms 7 and 8 have French and Swiss border controls. Long distance and regional express trains leave for France without making any stops in Switzerland. Another reason to separate the tracks is the different electrical standards of the relevant railway system on either side. The French system uses 25 kV at 50 Hz AC, but the Swiss system uses 15 kV AC at 16.7 Hz.

The station connects to one Swiss mainline, the Lausanne–Geneva line, which links the city with the rest of Switzerland, to the east. Many longdistance trains from this line continue to and terminate at the airport, 6 minutes away. There is also significant traffic to France westwards along the LyonGeneva line, which, for the first few kilometres, runs as a single track line alongside the doubletrack line to the airport. Traffic to France includes longdistance TGVs to Paris and southern France and regional trains to Lyon via Bellegarde. Cornavin is also the hub of the Léman Express network, with six routes in service. Many of these routes travel over the newlyopened CEVA, which leads to Annemasse.
