Albion railway station was a railway station in England, built by the London and North Western Railway on their Stour Valley Line in 1853. It served the town of Oldbury, and was located near to Union Road.

The station closed in 1960, although the Rugby-Birmingham-Stafford Line loop from the West Coast Main Line still runs through the site of the station today.

There is little evidence of the location of the station on the ground today; Oldbury is now served by Sandwell and Dudley railway station.
