Story station is a planned VTA light rail station in San Jose, California. It is proposed as an elevated station located on Capitol Expressway at Story Road.

The VTA light rail Orange Line is planned to be extended to the Eastridge Transit Center from its current terminus at the Alum Rock Transit Center, with Story station being the intermediate stop. This is part of the Eastridge to BART Regional Connector Project.{{cite news |last1=DeRuy |first1=Emily |date=6 June 2019 |title=San Jose: VTA greenlights Eastridge light rail extension |agency=The Mercury News |url=https://www.mercurynews.com/2019/06/06/san-jose-vta-green-lights-eastridge-light-rail-extension/ |access-date=16 September 2021}} The extension would offer rail connection to the Milpitas Transit Center and the Mountain View Transit Center, providing access to Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) and Caltrain.
