Okahukura railway station was a station on the North Island Main Trunk in New Zealand. The station opened when work started on the eastern end of the Stratford–Okahukura Line. It was served by through trains on that line from 3 September 1933 (though rails were completed by 7 November 1932) to 2009, being 9.65 km (6.00 mi) east of Tuhua.

Work started shortly after Sir Joseph Ward had turned the first sod, including the construction of workshops and 4 railway houses at Okahukura, and the station opened the following year. It seems that the initial service was provided by coaches attached to goods trains. A cattle yard and goods shed were added in 1915. In 1916 a porter was paid 9 shillings a week. (en)
