Osborne railway station is a railway station on the Outer Harbor railway line which is located in the northwestern Adelaide suburb of North Haven, rather than the suggested Osborne. It is located 19.6 km by railway from the Adelaide Railway Station. This station is just north of where the main line becomes single track. Osborne once had two platforms (island layout) but it was closed in the 1980s when the balloon loop was removed at Outer Harbor. There was a nearby branchline just south of the station that went to the ICI Osborne works, but that branchline has since been dismantled.

“Her personality had an architectonic quality; I think of her when I see some of the great London railway termini, especially St. Pancras, with its soot and turrets, and she overshadowed her own daughters, whom she did not understand—my mother, who liked things to be nice; my dotty aunt. But my mother had not the strength to put even some physical distance between them, let alone keep the old monster at emotional arm’s length.”
—Angela Carter (1940–1992)
