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 and later Lang Street.
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.
Until the mid-1970s, the station building was used as 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.
