}}Rochester Junction station was a Lehigh Valley Railroad station in Mendon, New York. The station was at the junction of the Lehigh Valley's main line and its Rochester Branch, which provided access to Rochester, {{convert|13.2|mi}} to the north.[1][2]

The station opened in 1892. This original building remained in use for four years until it was replaced by a larger structure. The Lehigh Valley disassembled the first station and moved it to Lima, New York.[3]

Buses replaced trains over the Rochester Branch ended on September 6, 1950.[4] Rochester Junction was one of many stations which lost its passenger service on May 12, 1959, when the Lehigh Valley eliminated 60% of its remaining passenger trains, including all but one round-trip west of Lehighton, Pennsylvania.[5][6] The Lehigh Valley continued to use the building for storage until a fire destroyed it on April 22, 1973.[7] A local Boy Scout troop constructed a replica of the freight house on the former station site in 2013.[8]
