Welshpool was a railway station on the South Gippsland line in South Gippsland, Victoria. The station was opened during the 1890s, it then operated until the 1980s. The site of the former station contains a preserved platform and the base of its crane. The station no longer contains the tiny building that was donated to Loch station. Welshpool station had a small horse-drawn narrow gauge branch line to Welshpool Jetty which was closed in 1941. Near the former station is Welshpool Hospital.
