North Lathrop station is a planned Altamont Corridor Express station in Lathrop, California – the second to be constructed in the city. It was expected to open to revenue service in 2023 as part of the first phase of ACE's expansion to Merced,[2][3] but was later delayed to 2027.[4]

The station is located on a segment of the former Sharpe Army Depot.[5] Whereas, the original Lathrop/Manteca station was sited as a compromise to draw commuters from both cities, this station is located closer to residential areas.

North Lathrop is designed as a transfer station to allow passengers from San Joaquin Valley shuttle trains to transfer to services bound for San Jose.[6] The station is also planned to serve as the first phase northern terminus of Valley Link, a project by the Tri-Valley-San Joaquin Valley Regional Rail Authority to build a rail connection to Bay Area Rapid Transit's Dublin/Pleasanton station.[7] Up to 3,500 parking spaces may be built to accommodate future park and ride demand by 2040.[5]
