Seoraphuli Junction railway station is a Kolkata Suburban Railway station on the Howrah–Bardhaman main line in Hooghly district in the Indian state of West Bengal. It serves Sheoraphuli area & northern part of the Serampore City. The Sheoraphuli–Tarakeswar branch line meets Howrah–Bardhaman main line at Sheoraphuli.

The first passenger train in eastern India ran from Howrah to Hooghly on 15 August 1854. The track was extended to Raniganj by 1855.^[5]

The broad-gauge Sheoraphuli–Tarakeswar branch line was opened by the Tarkessur Railway Company on 1 January 1885 and was worked by East Indian Railway Company.^[6][7] Testing of electric locomotives with some coaches on section Belur to Konnagar commenced on 10 November 1957. On four suburban trains, hauled by electric locomotives, introduced on the section Howrah to Sheoraphuli from 1 December 1957, a saving of 11 minutes per run compared to steam services was achieved.^[8]

Electrification of Howrah–Burdwan main line was completed with 3 kV DC overhead system in 1958.^[9] Howrah–Sheoraphuli–Tarakeswar line was electrified in 1957–58. It was converted to 25 kV AC in the 1970s^[10]
