History

This location was previously served by the Howard Street station of the Valley Railway (which was acquired by the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad starting in 1890).[4] Trains began stopping here in 1880.[5] By 1948, the station was served by the Cleveland Night Express, Shenandoah, and Washington Night Express.[6]
Cuyahoa Valley Line (later renamed the Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad) excursion trains began operating here in 1976.
In 1990, service on the Cuyahoga Valley Line was truncated to a temporary stop at Merriman Valley, due to deteriorating conditions on the Howard Street bridge. Service was restored on August 1, 1993.[7]
