Ongarue railway station was a station on the North Island Main Trunk in New Zealand, serving the sawmill town of Ongarue.
In 1900 the station was known as Kawakawa and then Ongaruhe.
From 1922 to 1958 most of the timber freight at the station came from the connected Ellis and Burnand Tramway.
It was the scene of the Ongarue railway disaster in 1923, up to then, the worst rail crash in the country. A memorial was unveiled at the site a century later, on 8 July 2023.
In 1941 the station employed a stationmaster and two clerks.
Passenger numbers peaked in 1944, as shown in the graph and table below -
