Burnley railway station is a commuter railway station and the junction point for the Lilydale, Belgrave, Alamein and Glen Waverley lines, part of the Melbourne railway network. It serves the inner-eastern Melbourne suburb of Burnley in Victoria, Australia. Burnley is a ground level premium station, featuring four platforms, two island platforms with two faces connected by an accessible underground concourse. It opened on 1 May 1880.

Initially opened as Burnley Street, the station was given its current name of Burnley on 1 September 1882.[4] Train stabling facilities are located at the eastern (down) end of the station, adjacent to the Glen Waverley line, while an additional, rarely-used siding is located at the western (Up) end.
