Buenavista Station (Spanish: Estación Buenavista), also called Buenavista Terminal (Spanish: Terminal Buenavista), was a passenger train station in Mexico City. The station opened in 1873 and was fully operated by Ferrocarriles Nacionales de México from 1909 until its demolition in 1958. The original station was replaced by a modern structure, which remained in operation until 2005. In 2008, the site was redeveloped to become the terminus of the Tren Suburbano commuter rail service.
