History
Starting in 1998 the Chicago-Philadelphia Pennsylvanian stopped in Elyria until 2003 when the train reverted the original Pittsburgh-New York route.
The former New York Central station is in downtown Elyria. It was built in 1925 as a replacement for a former Lake Shore and Michigan Southern Railway depot, and has been purchased by the Lorain County government for use as a transportation center. The building had been used for many years as a beauty school since it was sold by Conrail. The county hopes to use the building again for Amtrak trains.[1] On August 1, 2013 it was announced that Amtrak has offered to pay $2.9 million towards the project in hopes of relocating its passenger service there.[2]
On October 25, 2013, the East River Road station building caught fire, causing an estimated $25,000 in damage and closing the station building indefinitely, with passenger access limited to the platform.[3]
On November 10, 2024, the Capitol Limited was merged with the Template:Lnl as the Floridian.[4]
