Amo THI & E Interurban Depot/Substation, also known as Amo Interurban Depot, is a historic interurban train station located at Amo, Hendricks County, Indiana. It was built in 1907 by the Terre Haute, Indianapolis and Eastern Traction Company. The building consists of a small brick passenger/cargo depot with a large, two-story repair substation at the rear. It has Romanesque Revival and Queen Anne style design elements. The passenger depot section is topped by a series of red clay tile hipped roofs. Interurban transportation for Amo ceased on January 10, 1940. The building was renovated in the 2000s for use as a library and community center.[2]

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2007.[1]
