Hardin County Stations Of The Past

Station Railroad Notes
Ada PFt.W&C (PRR) According to old maps, the old freight station sat on the southeast corner of where Johnson Street crosses the tracks. It sat directly across the tracks from the N.R. Park Grain Elevator and Warehouse.
Alger Erie
Dunkirk PRR The passenger station was in the northeast quadrant of the crossing with the T&OC. The freight station was on the east side of Main Street.
Dunkirk T&OC Anyone know where the passenger station sat? I believe it was on South Railroad Street south of Washington St. The T&OC had a freight station in the southeast quadrant of the crossing with the PRR and this building had frontage on West Washington Street.
Forest PFt.W&C (PRR) & CCC&St.L Forest's union station sat across the transfer track from the location of the existing freight station on Lima Street. The station sat on the southeast corner of the diamond with platforms along both RRs. Across the Big 4 tracks was the interlocking tower.
Kenton Erie
Kenton T&OC
Mt. Victory CCC&St.L
