Toolamba is a closed railway station on the Goulburn Valley railway in the town of Toolamba, Victoria, Australia. The station opened as a junction at the same time as the railway from Mangalore to Shepparton on 13 January 1880,[1] with the line to Tatura opening on the same day.[2] The last passenger service to the station from Echuca ran on 2 March 1981 with Y class diesel locomotive Y161 an ABE carriage and a C van. This consist had only been introduced a few months prior, with a DERM usually being rostered.[3] Toolamba finally closed as a station on 20 December 1987.[1]

The platform was on the west side of the line, with a dirt mound and the foundations of the signal box remaining today. A water tower is located at the Seymour end of the station, and a 725 metre long loop siding is located across from the former platform, which is usable as a crossing loop.[4] The junction for the line to Echuca faces Seymour, and is located on the Shepparton end of the level crossing.
