Violet Town is a railway station serving the settlement of the same name on the broad gauge Albury-Wodonga railway line in Victoria, Australia.

The station is located south of the Murchison-Violet Town Road level crossing. The Melbourne - Sydney standard gauge main line runs past the station without any platform. In 1969 the Violet Town railway disaster occurred when the southbound "Southern Aurora" passenger train collided head on with a northbound freight train.
