Erica was a railway station on the Walhalla narrow gauge line in Gippsland, Victoria, Australia. The station was opened in 1910, and was closed on the 4th of October, 1952 with the section of track from Platina to Erica. The station also had sidings for a Forest Commission timber mill.
Erica was originally named Upper Moondarra, but was renamed prior to 15th of June, 1908 to Moondarra, then to Harris (after a local member of parliament) prior to the line opening. In 1914 it was renamed Erica after the local mountain.
The site is currently occupied by a caravan park, although it is planned as the ultimate western terminus for the Walhalla Goldfields Railway.
