This is a list of the 200 currently operating suburban railway stations (216 including greater metropolitan stations) in Melbourne, Australia. The stations make up 16 radial railway lines (and 4 greater metropolitan lines), as well as the central City Loop.

There are also a further 19 stations on 3 heritage, volunteer-operated, tourist railways. These are not a part of the suburban network.

Stations are broken up into 3 Metcard ticketing zones (some stations are in the overlap between two zones, where tickets for either zone may be used), as well as the City Saver area, which is within Zone 1 and covers the central business district.

• Stations listed in bold are terminus stations. On some lines, some trains will be timetabled to terminate before the end of the line. Shuttle trains are also run between terminus stations on some lines.

• Stations listed in italics are "premium" stations that are manned first to last train by staff who provide extra assistance and information to commuters.

• Stations followed by an asterisk ( * ) are "host" stations. These stations are manned during peak hours only. Some are manned only during morning peak, some during both morning and evening peaks.

• Listed in parentheses after each station is that station's 3-letter code. These codes are used internally by the railway control system, but can also be used when querying the Connex SMS Timetable.
