Gorton station betjener Gorton-distriktet i byen Manchester, England. Stationen ligger på Manchester-Glossop-linjen og er 2 1⁄2 miles øst for Manchester Piccadilly.
Den blev åbnet af Great Central Railway den 25. august 1906 og erstattede en tidligere station, der åbnede på linjen den 23. maj 1842. Fra 1. januar 1923 blev stationen drevet af London and North Eastern Railway. Den nye station lå på den travle Woodhead-rute til Sheffield Victoria og havde fire perroner. Den oprindelige station lå 200 yards vest for den nuværende station. Fra sin åbning blev den nye station kaldt Gorton og Openshaw, og den gik tilbage til sit oprindelige navn i 1977. Den blev omtalt som Openshaw i sangen "Slow Train" fra 1964 af Flanders og Swann. Kun to perroner er nu i brug.
