Seaholme railway station is located on the Werribee line in Victoria, and serves the western Melbourne suburb of Seaholme. The station opened on 26 January 1920, on what was then the line to Altona Beach.[1][2] In 2011/12, it was the fifth-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.
