Youngstown station (New York Central Railroad)
Youngstown station (New York Central Railroad)

Youngstown station was a New York Central and Pittsburgh and Lake Erie Railroad (P&LE) railway station in Youngstown, Ohio. It opened for rail service on November 11, 1926. In addition to the passenger and freight operations, the station contained the offices for the Franklin Division of the New York Central. The station was dedicated on November 10, 1926, by G.H. Ingalls, Vice President of Traffic for the railroad, who presented the station to the mayor of Youngstown, Charles F. Scheible. Other speakers at the dedication included J.A. Campbell, President of Youngstown Sheet and Tube, John Tod, Director of the Mahoning Coal Railroad, and several community members. The station was designed by Fellheimer and Wagner of New York City at a cost of $1,500,000. The station was approximately one mile north of the next major junction at Center Street, where five Class 1 railroads crossed one another at grade: Erie, P&LE, Pennsylvania, Baltimore and Ohio, and New York Central. This was one of the busiest non-interlocked railroad crossings in the U.S. The crossing was under the control of a switchtender employed by the B&O, who directed all movements with colored flags by day and lanterns by night. It was a statutory stop, so no train moved until the switchtender beckoned him on. This included 16 daily passenger trains operated by the PRR, P&LE, NYC, and B&O. This congestion led to challenges for passenger trains accessing the New York Central station. Throughout much of its history, the station shared New York Central and P&LE passenger responsibilities with the Erie Terminal, located approximately 1.5 miles further up on the Erie (and then Erie Lackawanna) Main Line. For example, in 1956, the New York Central station saw four daily P&LE trains while the Erie station saw ten. Both the eastbound and westbound Empire Express and the Pittsburgh-Buffalo Express stopped at the New York Central station. The station was party to several prominent arrivals, including the 1952 Democratic Party nominee for President, Adlai Stevenson, who came through the station on a campaign stop in Youngstown. It was demolished in the 1970s.

Youngstown is a city in and county seat of Mahoning County, Ohio, United States. At the 2020 census, it had a population of 60,068, making it the 11th-most populous city in Ohio. It is a principal city of the Youngstown–Warren metropolitan area, which had a population of 430,591 in 2020, making it the seventh-largest metro area in Ohio and 125th-largest metro area in the U.S. Youngstown is situated on the Mahoning River in Northeast Ohio, 58 miles (93 km) southeast of Cleveland and 61 miles (100 km) northwest of Pittsburgh. Youngstown is a midwestern city located at the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains. The city was named for John Young, an early settler from Whitestown, New York, who established the community's first sawmill and gristmill. It was an early industrial city of the late 19th and early 20th centuries and became known as a center of steel production. With the movement of jobs offshore as the steel industry in the United States fell into decline in the 1970s, the city became exemplary of the Rust Belt. Youngstown has seen a decline in population within city limits of nearly 65 percent since 1960. Downtown Youngstown has seen various revitalization efforts in the 21st century, including the Covelli Centre and Youngstown Foundation Amphitheatre. Other notable institutions in the city include the Butler Institute of American Art, Mill Creek Park, Stambaugh Auditorium, and Youngstown State University. Youngstown's first new downtown hotel since 1974—the DoubleTree by Hilton—opened in 2018 in the historic Stambaugh Building, adapted for this use.
