Agios Stefanos (Greek: Σιδηροδρομικός Σταθμός Αγίου Στεφάνου) is a railway station in Agios Stefanos, north of Athens, Greece, at km 33.542 from the Piraeus Railway Station (the new markings from Piraeus is still incorrect). The station was opened on March 8, 1904. It has two platforms.

In the early years, the station was known under the name Bogiati (Μπογιάτι) or Vogiati (Βογιάτι), which derived from a common name of the settlement of Agios Stefanos. It was renamed to Oion (Οίον) and changed again to its current name in the 1980s.

An extension of ISAP line 1 of Attiko Metro from Kifissia station to Agios Stefanos station has been proposed.[1]

In popular culture

The station (then known as Oion) was fictionally known as Thymatia station in the 1954 film Oute gata oute zimia.
