North Beverly station is an MBTA Commuter Rail station in Beverly, Massachusetts. Located in North Beverly, it serves the Newburyport/Rockport Line. The station has two low side platforms serving the line's two tracks, with mini-high platforms to provide accessibility.

The station originally opened by the mid-1850s.[2][3] The station building was converted to a hamburger stand by 1968, but later demolished.[4] As of May 2021[update], improvements to the accessible mini-high platforms are in design.[5]
