Kooyong railway station is located on the Glen Waverley line in Victoria, Australia. It serves the eastern Melbourne suburb of Kooyong opening on 24 March 1890.
The station was originally set to be named North Malvern railway station, but was renamed shortly prior to opening amid fears regarding the name's similarity to North Melbourne railway station.
A signal box is situated on Platform 2 at the northern end of the station, to control the Glenferrie Road tramway crossing.
Kooyong has two side platforms. It is serviced by Metro Trains' Glen Waverley line services.
