Vineyard is a station on the Richmond railway line in the western suburbs of Sydney, Australia. It serves a sparsely populated area, and is the least-used station on the Richmond line. The station is unattended and its station-only facilities are a covered waiting area, emergency help point and portable platform boarding ramp. There is no ticket machine, so customers must purchase a ticket at their destination. On 20 November 2006, Railcorp announced plans to extend duplication along the Richmond line to Vineyard station. There were also long-term plans to link the now-defunct North Western railway line to join the Richmond line at Vineyard. Vineyard station has a side platform with near street level access, connected by a level crossing to the other side of the track, and therefore has close to Easy Access for wheelchairs.
