Huon is a closed station located in the town of Huon, on the Cudgewa railway line in Victoria, Australia. Huon Railway Station, had officially opened in 1889 being known as "Huon Lane" until 1904. Huon was erected as part of the "octopus act", an infamous railway building act consisting of 65 proposed railway projects in Victoria. The Cudgewa Line (consisting of Houn station) branched off at the former Wodonga Station, creating a junction station for passengers wishing to travel on the Cudgewa line.
