Nalawort railway station was located on the Adelaide-Wolseley line serving what is now the Adelaide Hills suburb of Crafers West to the east of the Kain Avenue level crossing.[1]

Nalawort was opened in the 1920s as a stopping place for rail motors, suggesting it was opened when the Brill Model 75 class railcars entered service. The station closed on 12 December 1945.[1]
