Exeter Railway Station is a station on the Southern Highlands line of the CityRail intercity network, serving the small village of Exeter, New South Wales, Australia. The station opened in 1878 as Badgerys Siding, but was renamed to Exeter, after the name of a local farm, on 12 August 1890. The station has two platforms that serve the diesel railcars that use the line. The up (Sydney-bound) platform is of a dual height, allowing different era trains to use the station if required, without a large gap between the platform and the train.

The platforms are not connected, and passengers are required to cross the tracks on a specialist foot crossing at the northern end of the station to reach the opposite platform. Since both platforms are level, there is effectively Easy Access to the station.
