It serves the western suburb of Seddon, in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.

[4] Opening on 10 December 1906, Seddon station, like the suburb itself, was named after Richard John Seddon, who was a worker at the Newport Workshops, a corporal in the artillery at Williamstown, and was Prime Minister of New Zealand between 1893-1906.

[5][6] The station opened as a double line block post with a signal box, for the control of trains in the section from Footscray to Yarraville.

The block post closed in 1912, but automatic signalling was not provided on the section until 1927.

It is served by Werribee and Williamstown line trains.
