Estación Buenos Aires Línea Belgrano Sur (Spanish for "Buenos Aires South Belgrano Line Station") is a passenger railway terminal in Buenos Aires, Argentina. The facility is located a short distance north of the Riachuelo River in the barrio of Barracas, an outlying neighbourhood in the southern part of the city. It is commonly referred to as simply Estación Buenos Aires, meaning "Buenos Aires Station".

Despite what this name may imply, Estación Buenos Aires is not the principal railway station of the city. Indeed, it is a secondary commuter rail terminal. The local transportation company Metropolitano operates multiple daily diesel trains to and from the Buenos Aires suburbs along two branches of its South Belgrano Line. Destinations include several stops in La Matanza Partido.

The station is accessible by some public city bus lines. It is the only railway terminal in Buenos Aires that has no access to the Buenos Aires Metro subway.
