This photo is identified as being near Dayton. Can anyone help confirm whether it was a station and where it was located? Mystery solved: This was not a station, but rather the B&O yard office shack at South Dayton Yard. | ||||||

 |
The "Round Top" union depot was built around 1855-56. It was at the corner of South Wilkinson and West 6th Streets (GPS: 39.755105,-84.193876).

Built in 1900, the station was located at West 6th and South Wilkinson Streets (GPS: 39.755059,-84.194208). The tracks were elevated in 1931. The main building and towers were removed in the 1950s and the area under the tracks was modified to serve as the station with new entranceways. The remaining station was demolished in 1989. Bob Thaman reports in 2008: The old olive green and gray specked terrazzo floor and black and maroon 12" square tile floors of offices are still there to indicate the terminal. The two stairway openings leading up to the tracks above are evident but now covered over with metal sheeting so someone above doesn't fall through to the old floors below. | ||||||

| Notes About Existing
Stations... Air Hill (PCC&St.L)This was likely an inn that served as a flagstop for the railroad. It was likely built, or established as a station, during the Dayton & Western days. The Dayton & Union timetable from 1900 shows a stop here. A note in the Jan. 17, 1894 Dayton Herald says the "new" Air Hill depot was purchased by Nicholas Fryman for $400 and that he would take possession of it in one year. The staton name is shown as "Weavers" on some valuation maps. The name may have been changed to avoid confusion with the Weaver Station between Greenville and New Madison on the PRR in Darke County.
