Niverville is a former Boston and Albany Railroad station in the hamlet of Niverville, New York.

The station itself was built in the 1840s by the Western Railroad of Massachusetts, and became part of the Boston and Albany Railroad in 1870. Service to this station ceased in the late 1940s. The building presently has 3 apartments upstairs and a tavern on the ground floor. The station is currently known as the Niverville Pub.
