Princes Dock was a railway station on the Liverpool Overhead Railway, adjacent to the dock of the same name.

It was opened on 6 March 1893 by the Marquis of Salisbury.

The station closed, on 13 March 1941, due to extensive damage during the World War II Blitz.{{cite news |url= http://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/news/liverpool-news/dockers-umbrella-city-railway-served-3489532 |title= The Dockers' Umbrella: City railway served Liverpool's busy port |date= 23 April 2008 |access-date= 2 August 2015 |work= Liverpool Echo}} No evidence of this station remains.[http://www.disused-stations.org.uk/p/princes_dock Princes Dock on Disused Stations]
