Notes About Existing Stations... Collins (LS&MS) - The first passenger depot was the building later used as the freight house. In 1872 this building was moved a short distance west and the new passenger depot built. According to NYCRR valuation records, this station was built in 1853. Curtice (W&LE) - Moved From Curtice, OH in Ottawa Co. Greenwich (PA&W) - Station built originally in Greenwich, Ohio by the Pittsburgh, Akron & Western Railroad, predecessor of the Akron, Canton & Youngstown. It was moved to New London in 1921 after the New London station had burned down. Closed in 1967 it was moved to New London's Recreation Park in 1972 now used as the park headquarters. The original location of the depot was at the north end of North Pleasant Street in Greenwich. Monroeville (TN&C) - The Monroeville depot was built in 1863. The RR line was built by the TN&C RR in 1852 but in September of 1853 it became the Cleveland & Toledo RR, so the depot was actually built during the C&T RR years. Data from the National Archives shows that this station was jointly owned 50% by the C&T and 50% by the B&O. The B&O moved out of the this depot when the new W&LE depot was built around 1887 and moved in with them. -- Fritz Kuenzel Monroeville (LS&MS Freight) - West of passenger station. Monroeville (W&LE/B&O) - Now on SR 13 in Milan at Metropark. See this site for more info. This station was originally located on the east side of South Ridge Street at the B&O/W&LE crossing and was moved to it's current location in May 1979. According to B&O valuation records, this station was built in 1894. It is most likely of W&LE design as it is almost identical to the W&LE station that was in Massilon. The joint B&O/W&LE freight house was on the opposite side of the diamond. Also on the diamond was a hotel which was called the Junction House in early years and the Cottage House in later years. New Washington (PA&W) - Station was on south side of tracks east of SR 602 in New Washington (Crawford Co.) until being dismantled. It was then moved by Fritz Kuenzel to 2578 Zenobia Road, Norwalk until 2018 when it was dismantled again and moved to Monroeville where it is being reassembeld and restored. Norwalk (T&NC) - This is the original Toledo, Norwalk & Cleveland combination station. After the new LS&MS station was built in 1872, it served as the freight station. Wakeman (LS&MS) - This freight station was on the south side of Railroad Avenue west of Pierce Street at GPS:41.255323, -82.404723. Built in 1874, it sat vacant for many years before being disassembled in late 2021. It was transported to Milan (in Erie County) and rebuilt on private property. Willard (Replica) - This building is not the original depot but rather was built from the bricks when the original depot (Chicago Junction) was torn down. The original station dates from 1875 and was torn down in 1976. The new replica depot structure was finished in 1978 and opened as a community center in the eraly 1980s.
