Lawnton railway station is located on the North Coast line in Queensland, Australia. It serves the suburb of Lawnton in the Moreton Bay Region.
Lawnton station opened in 1888. In 2001, a third platform opened as part of the addition of a third track from Bald Hills to just north of the station.
As part of the Redcliffe Peninsula railway line project, the third track is being extended north to Petrie including a new bridge over the North Pine River.
Lawnton is served by all City network services from Kippa-Ring to Central, many continuing to Springfield Central
