Kingussie railway station is a railway station serving the town of Kingussie, Inverness-shire in the Highland Council Area of Scotland. The station is managed by First ScotRail and is on the Highland Main Line.

It is located in Ruthven Road, Kingussie about 200 yards South-East of the High Street. There are two platforms, one of conventional height on the Down line and another of somewhat lower height on the Up line; the station buildings are on the Down platform. A level crossing takes Ruthven Road over both tracks at the Inverness end of the station, with the local signal box at that end of the Up platform. The station has a crossing loop on the mainly single-track line from Inverness to Perth.

Kingussie High School, is close to the station, as are also the Highland Council offices serving the Badenoch and Strathspey area.
