Lairg railway station is a railway station just south of the village of Lairg in the Highland council area of Scotland. The station is on the Far North Line.

Until April 2009 the station provided an interchange point for postbus services to the remote communities of Durness, Kinlochbervie and Tongue, Highland. Following considerable local opposition to the cancellation of the services they have now been replaced by temporary services operated, under contract from the Highland Council, by Stagecoach plc. The future of the services has yet to be determined.

Highland Rail Partnership is based in the former booking office.

Services

Four Inverness to Wick via Thurso trains call here each way on weekdays & Saturdays (along with a fifth Inverness departure southbound in the early morning) and a single departure each way on Sundays.
