This large brick combination station was on the east side of Union Street between 4th and 5th (which is now 7th) at GPS: 40.871851, -82.312767. The Ashland & Wooster tracks ran parallel to the Erie tracks here. This building was later used as the PRR freight and passenger station. | ||||||
| Ashland |
 |
The first NYP&O passenger station here was on the west side of Orange Street at GPS: 40.872704, -82.315787. | ||||||
| Ashland |
|
This was the original frame freight station. According to Erie RR valuation records, the station was built in 1866. It was at the north end of Church Street at GPS: 40.873042, -82.316615. It was torn down in 1943 and replaced with a new brick passenger and freight depot following the demolition of the Erie passenger station in 1943. | ||||||

|
The Erie freight depot was at the NE corner of Church and Pleasant Streets (the site of the original freight station) at GPS: 40.873042, -82.316615. After the passenger station was demolished in a 1943 derailment, this station was built to serve as a passenger and freight station. It was eventually damaged in another derailment in 1963 and subsequently demolished soon after. | ||||||
| Coulter |
 |
According to PRR valuation records, a shelter was built here in 1910. I beleive this station was just east of the county line in Ashland County on Twp-1075 in the vicinity of GPS: 40.693172, -82.337669. It was at same location as the Illinois Pipeline Company. Can anyone verify this location? Not sure which side of the county line this station was on. | ||||||

This Ashland & Wooster station was on the north side of Main Street across the tracks from a hotel (which can be partially seen in the photo). The original name of this company was the Millersburg, Jeromesville and Greenwich Railroad Company, changed to the Ashland and Wooster Railway Company, by amendment to the Charter, March 2, 1897. The portion of the road from Ashland to Jeromeville, Ohio, 8.26 miles, was opened for operation September 6, 1899. The railroad was later part of the Lorain, Ashland & Southern. | ||||||

Notes About Existing Stations... Sullivan (B&O) - Approx 1.5 miles north of Sullivan, Ohio on S.R. 58. Has been converted to a house. This station was the first built on the original Akron & Chicago Jct. (B&O) line from Akron to Willard. The line once ran several hundred feet south of the present line in Sullivan. The station was moved north when the line was changed to avoid a significant grade between Sullivan and Lodi, Ohio. It is the only known railroad station still in existence in Ashland County. |
