East Pakenham railway station is a railway station under construction in Pakenham, Victoria. Announced in 2020, the station is scheduled for opening in 2024 alongside a rebuilt Pakenham railway station, and will be built as part of the Level Crossing Removal Project.[1][2]

Until mid-2023, the state government referred to the station as Pakenham East railway station. The name "East Pakenham" was confirmed in a new train map published by Public Transport Victoria in May 2023.[3]

East Pakenham will have one island platform with two faces. It will be serviced by Metro Trains' Pakenham line services.[4]
