It serves the south-eastern suburb of Noble Park, in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. Noble Park station is an elevated structure premium station, with an island platform.

History
Noble Park station, like the suburb itself, is named after Noble Buckley, the son of Allan Buckley, who is recognised as the founder of the suburb.
In 1927, the station was closed to goods traffic. In 1954, flashing light signals were provided at the former Heatherton Road level crossing, which was located near the station in the up direction.
In 1972, new ground-level station buildings were provided, after the original station building on Platform 1 had been destroyed by an arsonist on 22 August 1970. In 1977, boom barriers were provided at the former Heatherton Road level crossing.
In 2007, minor upgrade works were carried out to the station as part of the EastLink toll road project. The upgrades including improved shelter, car parking and better security, including brighter lighting and better CCTV coverage.
In 2015, the Level Crossing Removal Project announced the grade separation of the Heatherton Road level crossing, with construction beginning in 2016. The final scheme involved elevating the line over Corrigan, Heatherton and Chandler Roads and included a new high-level station, which opened on 15 February 2018. A row of shops now occupies the site of the former ground-level station buildings.
