Stockyard Creek railway station was located on the Hamley Bridge-Gladstone railway line. It served the locality of Stockyard Creek, South Australia.

On 15 January 1880, the railway line was built from Hamley Bridge north towards Balaklava (later extended to Blyth and Gladstone) by 1894). As part of this line, a railway station, goods shed and a siding accommodation was provided. ^[1] The site where the station was built was formerly used as a stockyard by C.B Fisher hence the station was named Stockyard Creek.^[2] On 1 August 1927, the line through Stockyard Creek was gauge converted to 5 ft 3 in (1,600 mm).^[3]

In 1978, the station and all associated infrastructure was included in the transfer of South Australian Railways to Australian National. The Bluebird railcar service to Gladstone ceased by 1982.^[4] In 1997, the railway line and yards were included in the transfer of Australian National's freight assets to Australian Southern Railroad (later known as One Rail Australia.) Grain trains last used the line through Stockyard Creek in 2005.^[5] The railway line and yards were included in Aurizon's purchase of One Rail Australia in 2022.

As of 2024, the platform is the only evidence of the station remaining with the building, siding and goods shed being removed on an unknown date sometime before. ^[6]
