Braintree Station, located at Ivory and Union Streets in Braintree, Massachusetts, is the southernmost station on the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority's Red Line. It also is a stop on the MBTA Commuter Rail, Old Colony Lines (MBTA).

The station features a large park and ride garage, with space for 1,281 automobiles (though the garage often fills up on busy days). It can be easily reached from Exit 17 off Route 3, a major highway to Cape Cod.

The station opened on March 22, 1980 and is a 30 minute ride from Park Street. Braintree Station is wheelchair accessible. See MBTA accessibility.

Until 2007, there was a $1.25 exit fare and a $2.50 entry fare to pay for the added routes; when at that time the entry fare for MBTA subway stations was normally $1.25. These surcharges existed at Quincy Adams and Braintree, and similar surcharges existed on other parts of the Braintree Extension at various times.
