Fostoria station is a former train station in Fostoria, Ohio.

History

The station building was constructed by the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. It opened in March 1907. Baltimore and Ohio services ended in 1971.[2]

When Amtrak rerouted the Broadway Limited in 1990, Fostoria was selected as a stop on the line. The city pledged $65,000 (equivalent to $156,440 in 2024) to refurbish the station, platform, and parking lot for the new service.[3]: 24  The Broadway Limited served the station between 1990 and 1995. Amtrak again reactivated the stop on December 15, 1997, for the Three Rivers. Passenger service finally ceased in 2005.
