Terre Haute station, also known as the Big Four Depot, was a train station in Terre Haute, Indiana.
Construction on the Big Four Railroad station started in 1898 and it opened to passengers on July 27, 1899.[1] The station served Big Four (Cleveland, Cincinnati, Chicago and St. Louis Railway) trains, and after the railroad was absorbed into the New York Central, it served trains under that name.
The station was on the New York Central's St. Louis - Indianapolis - Cleveland corridor, and it served several named trains on that route. The trains heading toward Cleveland included Missourian (St. Louis - New York City, with a section to Detroit), Southwestern Limited (St. Louis - New York City), as well as named and unnamed trains running strictly between St. Louis and Cleveland.[2]
The Amtrak National Limited (Kansas City - New York City and Washington, D.C.) ceased operation on October 1, 1979, ending rail service to the city.[3] [4] It was demolished in 1986.
