Danville station is a former interurban railway station in Danville, Indiana, located at the corner of Marion Street and Indiana Street.[1] It was the terminal of the Danville branch. Service between Danville and Indianapolis began on September 1, 1905.[2] The station building was constructed by the Terre Haute, Indianapolis and Eastern Traction Company between 1907 and 1920.[3] A planned line between here and Amo never materialized.[2] Interurban service ceased in October 1930.[1] After rail service ended, the building served as an automotive repair garage.[3]
