Launching Place was a railway station on the Warburton line in Victoria, Australia, which served the local town of the same name. It opened and closed with the line. All that remains of the station are the concrete posts of the platform wall. There is a station name sign on the Lilydale to Warburton Rail Trail at the station site.
