Lewisburg is a historic railroad freight station located in Lewisburg, Pennsylvania, United States.
Built by the Philadelphia and Reading Railroad in 1884, this historic train station is a one-and-one-half-story, brick and frame building that was created in an eclectic Late Victorian style. The roof consists of a hipped form at the north end and jerkin head gable at the south. Featuring wide, overhanging eaves, exposed rafters, and a freight platform, it was abandoned by Conrail during the 1970s, and then restored and adapted for office use in 1986.[1]
The freight building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1992 as the Reading Railroad Freight Station. It is located in the Lewisburg Historic District, near Hufnagle Park.
