Ashtabula was a disused Lake Shore and Michigan Southern Railway depot in Ashtabula, Ohio. It was built in 1901 to replace an older depot on the same line. The depot was located on West Thirty-second Street.[1] Along with the rest of the line, the station became part of the New York Central Railroad system in 1914. The station received commuter service from Cleveland Union Terminal until 1945.
