Musselburgh railway station is a railway station serving the town of Musselburgh, East Lothian near Edinburgh in Scotland. It was opened by British Rail in 1988 and is located on the East Coast Main Line, 5+1⁄4 miles (8.4 km) east of Edinburgh Waverley, and is served by the North Berwick Line.

Two stations of the same name were opened by North British Railway. The 1st station opened in June 1846, which was renamed a year later as Inveresk railway station in July 1847. It closed in May 1964. The 2nd Musselburgh station opened in July 1847 and was located alongside the River Esk on its own branch line. That station serviced the Edinburgh and Dalkeith line to Fisherrow. It was closed to passenger services in September 1964 and goods services in December 1970.^[3]
