Manutahi railway station was a rural railway station on the Marton–New Plymouth line serving the settlements of Manutahi and Alton in New Zealand's Taranaki district. It was the point where the northern and southern railheads met during the construction of the Marton–New Plymouth line in 1885. The station is now closed to all traffic, but a crossing loop at Manutahi remains in use for passing freight trains.
