Tarana railway station is located on the Main Western line in New South Wales, Australia. It serves the town of Tarana, opening on 22 August 1872. The track was lifted from the northern platform in 1996 when the line was singled.

It was the junction for the Oberon line that closed in 1979. The Oberon Tarana Heritage Railway have a vision to restore the line to Tarana.

Tarana is served by NSW TrainLink's daily Central West XPT service operating between Sydney and Dubbo. Even though they pass through the station, the Bathurst Bullet and the Broken Hill trains do not stop.
