Milltown railway station is a planned railway station intended to serve the village of Milltown in County Galway. The station was originally opened by the Waterford, Limerick and Western Railway in 1894 on the route between Limerick and Claremorris.[1] The station was closed completely in 1963.

As part of the government's Transport 21 plan, Milltown station was to be re-opened in 2014 under the third stage of the Western Railway Corridor restoration, which would see the section between Tuam and Claremorris re-open. This project is deferred indefinitely.
