Beveridge is a closed railway station on the North East railway that served the township of Beveridge, Victoria, Australia.
This station opened on October 14, 1872. A goods shed was provided on opening, until moved in 1885 to the down side of the line. The final station building was located on the down platform and was transferred from Bright to replace the original in October 1900. [cite web

The platform of the station was extended in 1883, with duplication of the line from Donnybrook and construction of the Melbourne bound platform carried out the same year. Duplication continued northwards in 1886. The station was closed on April 2, 1990 and the platforms were removed on February 14, 1991. [cite web
