Moss Bank railway station was on the St Helens to Rainford Junction[1] then Ormskirk line on the northern edge of St Helens, England.[2] It opened on 3 February 1858 and closed to passengers on 18 June 1951. The line through the station closed in 1964 and has since been lifted.

The station had distinctive wooden buildings on each platform with curved overhanging roofs[3] to provide protection from inclement weather. Some other stations on the line had buildings of the same pattern.

The station has been demolished. Scafell Road runs through its site.
