Vedchha railway station is a small railway station on the Western Railway network in the state of Gujarat, India.[1] Vedchha railway station is near Navsari railway station.[2] Passenger and MEMU trains halt here.[3][4][5]

In the early 1960s the area immediately around the station was undeveloped[6] but it contributed to the development of the cotton industry in the nearby town of Abrama.[7]
