Seaholme railway station is located on the Werribee line in Victoria, Australia. It serves the western Melbourne suburb of Seaholme, opening on 26 January 1920, on what was then the line to Altona Beach.[1][2] In 2011/12, it was the 5th least used station on Melbourne's metropolitan network, with 116,000 passenger movements recorded.[3]

Boom barriers were provided at the nearby Millers Road level crossing in 1985.[4][5]

There were two stations, Mobiltown[6] and Williamstown Racecourse,[7] between Seaholme and Newport, but they are now closed and demolished.
