Werribee is a railway station in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, located in the suburb of Werribee on the Werribee railway line. It is the terminus for the Werribee line, and was upgraded to Premium Station status in 19971. Werribee is in Metcard Zone 2.

The station is located between Comben Drive and Manly Street, with station access from both via the station's underpass. The Western standard gauge line to Adelaide is adjacent to the west of the station. Werribee Station opened on June 25, 1857.2

Facilities

The station consists of three platforms, two in an island format. The island platform (platform 1 & 2) has a large shelter, while platform 3 has a large old brick building, which was the original station before the construction of the underpass.

The underpass beneath the station contains the station's ticket office, a large Metcard ticket machine and a mock Comeng train, which is used as a cafe. A small Metcard machine is located at the entrance to platform 3.
