Tulle is a railway station in Tulle, in the region of Nouvelle-Aquitaine, France. The station opened on 19 June 1868, and is located on the Coutras - Tulle and Tulle - Meymac railway lines. The station is served by Intercités (long distance) and TER (local) services operated by the SNCF. The station was also on the Tulle - Uzerches railway line between 1904 and 1969. The station is a turn in / reverse out railway station, so all trains have to change direction at this station, unless they use the line avoiding Tulle.

The station ��features’ in the 1973 film The Day of the Jackal, when the Jackal buys a ticket there, then catches the midday train to Paris. The scenes were filmed at Gare de Veynes - Dévoluy in the Hautes-Alpes.
