Băneasa railway station is a railway station in Băneasa borough of Bucharest, Romania, in the northern part of the city. It is situated on the main line to the Black Sea coast.

The railway station was inaugurated on 17 November 1886, under the name Gara Mogoșoaia. Traditionally, the railway station is used for the Royal departures and arrivals in the Royal Train; recently, on 16 December 2017, this was the departure point for HM King Michael I's funeral train to the Royal necropolis in Curtea de Argeș.
