Lathrop/Manteca station is a train station in southern Lathrop, California, served by Altamont Corridor Express (ACE) service. The station is located on rail tracks and a rail yard that is on land that was once a turkey farm.^[4] It is three miles (4.8 km) from Lathrop and one and a half miles (2.4 km) from Manteca to the east, a location chosen to draw commuters from both cities.^[4]

The station was studied to be relocated further south as part of the ACEforward project, but this concept was eliminated from consideration.^[5]
