Congupna is a closed railway station on the Goulburn Valley railway in the township of Congupna, just north of Shepparton, Victoria, Australia. The station opened as Congupna Road at the same time as the railway from Shepparton to Numurkah on 1 September 1881 being renamed to Congupna in February 1968.[1]

The platform was on the west side of the line, with the dirt mound remaining today. A rail served fertiliser depot was located on a loop siding across from the platform, but has not seen use since fertiliser traffic moved away from rail in the mid 2000s.
