The Lucasville railway station is a decommissioned railway station on the Lapstone Zig Zag that closed in 1892.

John Lucas purchased land for a country retreat adjacent to the top road of the Lapstone ZigZag. He built his house called Lucasville. The house has disappeared but traces of its gardens and access paths are still visible immediately to the west of the ZigZag walking track.
