Binalong railway station was a railway station on the Main Southern railway line, serving the village of Binalong, New South Wales, Australia. The original station opened in Binalong in November 1876 on the original rail alignment, which was bypassed with a deviation in 1916. The new island station opened on the new alignment in 1916 and is now closed to passenger services. It survives in good condition.[1] The original station on the old alignment is in use as a private residence.
