Ferny Grove Station is a railway station on the Ferny Grove Line of Brisbane, Australia. It is part of the Queensland Rail City network. It is the terminus for the Ferny Grove Line.
It is in Zone 3 of the TransLink integrated public transport system.
The Brisbane Tramway Museum is a short walk south of the station.
The line formerly extended to Dayboro, but was cut back to Ferny Grove in 1955, as part of a larger rationalisation by the Queensland Government of its railway lines. The line now terminates here with bus services running to Samford during peak times.
The Camp Mountain train disaster occurred in 1947 west of Ferny Grove on the Dayboro stretch of the line. It is Queensland's worst railway accident. 16 people were killed when a picnic excursion train failed to negotiate a bend on the line between Camp Mountain and Samford. A small memorial marks the site of the accident.
