Conneaut was a New York Central (originally a Lake Shore and Michigan Southern) train station in the U.S. town of Conneaut, Ohio. It was built in 1900 by the Lake Shore and Michigan Southern as a replacement for an older wooden depot, then acquired by the New York Central Railroad in 1914, along with the rest of the LS&MS.[2] The passenger depot building has housed the Conneaut Historical Railroad Museum since 1964, and has a display track with the Nickel Plate Road #755 Berkshire steam engine. The station has been registered as the Lake Shore And Michigan Southern Passenger Depot on the National Register of Historic Places since March 27, 1975. The freight house connected to the station is operated by the Conneaut Area Historical Society.[3]
