Notes... Enon - The building also served as a
grain store in the old days. Springfield (ERIE) - This station was not located on the Erie line as Springfield suburban railroad handled the cars from Maitland to the freight house. Building now houses Robinson Insulation.
Springfield (CCC&St. L) -
The Big Four freight and
passenger stations were originally built in 1910. The freight house is
still there, its almost a city block long and is currently used as the
Credit Life Insurance warehouse. The NYC passenger station built in 1910
was taken out in the late 1960s for the construction of the Spring Street
bridge over the NYC property, which at that time was many tracks. Spring
Street was cut off in 1909, so this bridge was a restoration of Spring as a
through street. The passenger station site itself is now a parking lot for
Clark State Community College. The earlier Union Passenger
Station was one block west on Washington between Fountain and Limestone
Streets. Washington Street was host to the double track NYC, which ran
right down the middle of the street. Union Station was demolished in 1910
when the new station opened. South of the old station also sat the PRR
(Little Miami) passenger station, about a half block south. The early
station was replaced circa 1909 - 1910 with a new station that served
passengers until 1953. The 1910 station was positioned to be on a new one
block street called Union Street, which ran between Fountain and Limestone.
The DT&I had two passenger stations in town at different times. Until 1897
it used the "Union Passenger Station," then moved into its own station on
North Limestone on the Springfield belt line of the Ohio Southern, a
forerunner of the DT&I. It was closed in 1932 and all DT&I trains went to
the PRR station. In 1937 they moved across the street into the DT&I's South
Limestone Street freight house. It was then used as a joint freight and
passenger station for the DT&I's mixed train until May 8, 1954, when the
DT&I ended all passenger service. Most of the Springfield
freight and passenger facilities met their end in the late 1960s and early
1970s when the transportation hub area surrounding the NYC passenger station
were demolished in an urban renewal project. --Scott Trostel
Springfield (Jackson Center) - This station was moved from Jackson Center, in Shelby County, by a private individual in the 1970s. It was restored and maintained in near original condition some 40 miles from its prior location. It features the distinctive 1920 style of Henry Ford when he owned the D T & I railroad and selected gray as the station color and with large signs. A very good example of Ford influence on the railroads under his ownership in that era. - Scott Trostel |
