Vorë railway station (Albanian: Stacioni hekurudhor i Vorë) was a railway station serving the town of Vorë in Tirana County in Central Albania.
The station was connected to Durrës and the capital Tirana[1] and was once an important interchange, being the junction for services from Durrës and Tirana, now closed, as well as those from Shkodër in the north, also closed except between Shkodër and Lac. After many years of neglect, the station was demolished and all tracks were removed.
