Washago railway station is located in the community of Washago, Ontario, Canada. The actual location is south off Simcoe County Road 169 east of Highway 11.

It is the first station stop northwest of Toronto Union Station for Via Rail's Canadian. Prior to its discontinuation in 2012, it was also the first stop northwest of Union Station for the Ontario Northland Railway's Northlander.

The station is unstaffed with all ticketing and baggage handling services provided by onboard train staff.

An abandoned CNR steam locomotive-era water tower at the station has been decorated and is used for the hamlet's water supply. The station itself consists of a transit shelter and platform. The white building in the picture is a former station that is now used by CN and is not open to passengers.
