Officers from Thames Valley Police and British Transport Police were called to reports that a man was carrying a firearm at the station in Elder Gate, Milton Keynes on Tuesday at 12.55pm.
A force spokesman said: “Armed officers from Thames Valley Police responded and challenged the man, before shots were fired by police.
“Life-saving actions were immediately taken at the scene, but the man was pronounced dead at 1.44pm.”
There is not believed to be any further risk to the public, police said.
Residents in flats above Milton Keynes Central station reported hearing a single loud noise before a large police and ambulance presence arrived.
Alan Brockbank, 70, told the PA news agency: “All I heard sounded like something heavy had been dropped, it didn’t sound like a shot or anything.”
A large police presence attended around 10 minutes later, he said, adding: “Then, of course, they were all around the front of the building, actually we could see the person lying on the floor and they were trying to resuscitate him.”
He saw a man receiving CPR chest compressions who was partly obscured by the awning at the station exit.
Mr Brockbank and his wife Edith, 67, who are both retired, assumed someone had suffered something like a heart attack.
Mrs Brockbank told PA: “There was all sorts of activity trying to get people back, there was somebody trying to film it, the police were trying to tell them to go back.
“We didn’t connect the bang with what was happening. I started looking to see what could have been dropped and I couldn’t see anything related to that sound.”
The husband added: “It was only later on we saw armed police with automatic weapons. There was two of them.”
