Aspendale railway station is located on the Frankston line in Victoria, Australia. It serves the south-eastern Melbourne suburb of Aspendale, opening in April 1891 as Aspendale Park Racecourse, and was renamed Aspendale on 1 August 1905.

Boom barriers were provided at the Groves Street level crossing (directly south of the station) in 1977. In 1981, the station buildings were rebuilt.

In early 2014 a man was hit and killed by a Frankston-bound train, causing the boom gates at Aspendale station to stay down, preventing cars to go from Nepean Highway to Station Street.

Aspendale has two side platforms. It is serviced by Metro Trains' Frankston line services.
