## History

This section needs expansion with: history of previous station buildings. You can help by adding missing information. (January 2026)

The previous station in 2009

The current station is the third station placed here. It was constructed during the winter of 2010-11 and cost $1.25 million.[2] Built primarily of dark red brick, the structure has an enclosed, one-story waiting room with large windows. From the outside, the waiting room is marked by projecting bays whose surfaces are covered in a rock-faced, coursed ashlar in a light beige tone. Developed by d+A design+Architecture of [Yardley, Pennsylvania](/source/Yardley%2C_Pennsylvania), the station design draws inspiration from historic late 19th and early 20th century depots found in small towns across the nation. It is similar to stations Amtrak has built in [Okeechobee, Florida](/source/Okeechobee_station_(Amtrak)), [Winnemucca, Nevada](/source/Winnemucca_station) and [Alliance, Ohio](/source/Alliance_station). In addition to the shelter, Amtrak installed a 550-foot (170 m) concrete [side platform](/source/Side_platform), signage and light poles. The new station is in the vicinity of the former [Baltimore & Ohio Railroad](/source/Baltimore_and_Ohio_Railroad) station, which no longer stands.[3]

On November 10, 2024, the *Capitol Limited* was merged with the *[Silver Star](/source/Silver_Star_(Amtrak_train))* as the *Floridian*.[4]
