Hoy was a railway station located northeast of Halkirk, Highland.

The station opened on 28 July 1874. Along with Georgemas Junction and Halkirk, it was one of three stations serving Halkirk prior to the Beeching closures of the 1960s. The Halkirk Games, first organized in 1886, were held in a nearby field.
