Thurso railway station is a railway station serving the town of Thurso, Highland, in the Highland council area, in the north of Scotland. The station is on the Far North Line, within the former county of Caithness, and it is the most northerly railway station in Great Britain. The station is 248 km (154 miles) north of Inverness.

While the station is at the terminus of the Thurso Branch, it is not now the operational end of the Far North Line. The train, after arriving at Thurso, goes back to Georgemas Junction, before heading east for Wick, the terminus.

In the past, the two car train would split in half at Georgemas, with one half going to Wick, and the other to Thurso. Prior to the introduction of multiple unit trains, a locomotive would be based at Georgemas Junction to take the Thurso portion to and from the junction.
