Lucasville railway station was a railway station on the Lapstone Zig Zag, part of the Main Western line in New South Wales. The station was open between 1878 and 1892.

John Lucas purchased land for a country retreat adjacent to the top road of the Lapstone ZigZag. He built his house called Lucasville. The house has disappeared but traces of its gardens and access paths are still visible immediately to the west of the ZigZag walking track.^[1]

For the convenience of himself, his family, and his guests, Lucas used his political clout to have a railway station built on the Top Road of the ZigZag. Lucasville Station opened in 1878 and the substantial concrete platform, with rock-cut steps leading west into Lucasville grounds.

Today the station is part of the Historic Lapstone Zig Zag walking track.
