The Stewartstown Railroad Station is an historic, American railroad station that is located in Stewartstown, York County, Pennsylvania.
It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1995.[1]
History and architectural features
This 1+1⁄2-story, three-bay by five-bay, brick building was built by the Stewartstown Railroad in 1914 and has a slate covered hipped roof. It was used as both a freight and passenger station.[2] It was the second station in Stewartstown, as the original 1884 station was taken out of service so the New Park & Fawn Grove Railroad, which interchanged with and was later operated by the Stewartstown, could be serviced easier. It was once the departing location for the now abandoned railroad's passenger excursion trains.
In 2018, the original slate roof was replaced with a new metal roof, after a tree planted at the station's opening dropped limbs on the roof, causing damage.
