Gettysburg




Located at the western terminus of the Gettysburg Railroad Company, the station is notable for being the site of Abraham Lincoln's arrival to Gettysburg on November 18, 1863, one day before delivering the Gettysburg Address. The station was built in the Italianate style, with arched windows, low-pitched roofs with eaves and decorative brackets that was popular in that day.
