Moorooduc railway station is located on Two Bays Road, Mount Eliza, Victoria, Australia. It was originally a stop on the Mornington railway line and was opened in September 1889. It was closed with the line in June 1981.

The footbridge from the now-closed Fitzroy Station has been re-erected at the station.

A toilet block was installed in 2013. There is a carriage dock which is mainly used for renovations and maintenance.

Adjacent to the station is the Mount Eliza Regional Park which incorporates the Moorooduc Quarry Flora and Fauna Reserve.

Future plans

The Mornington Railway Preservation Society, operators of the Mornington Tourist Railway, has plans to restore the former line that continues over the Moorooduc Highway to Baxter station on the Stony Point railway line. A few kilometres down the line is the proposed Sumner Road station, but the future of the project depends on obtaining the necessary funding.
