Truxton Depot, also known as Lehigh Valley Depot, is a historic railway depot located at Truxton in Cortland County, New York. It was built about 1872 by the Lehigh Valley Railroad. It is a small rectangular, one story structure, 50 feet long and 30 feet wide. The building ceased use as a train station in 1967 and was then used by Agway as a warehouse. In 1991, it was sold to the town of Truxton for $1.00.[1] It now serves as the Truxton Town Hall. [2]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2008.
