The Alexandra Line was a short branch line in Victoria, Australia that connected with the line to Mansfield at Cathkin. The station was originally called Alexandra Road and had a post office operating there from 14/5/1891 until it was renamed Alexandra Road PO c.1902.
The branch was closed in 1978, at the same time as the Mansfield Line. It is now preserved as part of the Goulburn River High Country Rail Trail.
The Alexandra Timber Tramway and Museum have occupied the station buildings since the 1970s and after the line was closed, run a museum dedicated to the timber industry in the local area.
