North Carlton is a former railway station that was located on the Inner Circle railway line in Melbourne, Australia. It was located on Lang Street. The station was opened on 8 May 1885, and was originally called Langridge-street ^[1] and later Lang Street. ^[2]

Regular passenger services ceased in 1948, although some trains were run in the years after that to cater for spectators attending football matches at nearby Princes Park. ^[3]

Until the mid-1970s, the station building was used a residence by the former station master and his wife, Mr. and Mrs. Barnes. It was vacated after their deaths. The building is now the North Carlton Station Neighborhood House.
