East Weymouth is a commuter rail station on the MBTA Commuter Rail Greenbush Line, located in the East Weymouth village of Weymouth, Massachusetts. It consists of a single side platform serving the line's one track. The station is fully handicapped accessible.

The New Haven Railroad abandoned its remaining Old Colony Division lines on June 30, 1959, after the completion of the Southeast Expressway. The East Weymouth station had been located off Station Street.

The MBTA reopened the Greenbush Line on October 31, 2007, with East Weymouth station off Commercial Street, east of the former location.

One MBTA Bus route stops on Broad Street, several blocks to the south:
