Harcourt is a closed station located on the Bendigo line. It served the township of Harcourt and was closed to passenger traffic on 4 October 1981, as part of the New Deal timetable for country passengers.[1]
A 10-ton crane at the station, used for loading blocks of Harcourt granite quarried at nearby Mount Alexander,[2] was removed in 1973.[3]
From 1982 to 2006, the station building on the former down platform housed the studios of Goldfields Community Access Radio (3CCC).[4]

In August 2018, the state government announced that it intended to re-open the station if it was re-elected at the 2018 state election.[5]
