History
[ edit ]
The trailer station building in 2011
The former Edgewood station of the Pennsylvania Railroad was designed by architect Lester C. Tichy in association with designer Raymond Loewy .[3] [4] The station is also located east of Amtrak's Edgewood Interlocking Tower, previously owned by the Pennsylvania Railroad .[5]
MARC Penn Line service was extended to Perryville on May 1, 1991, with intermediate stops at Aberdeen , Edgewood, and Martin State Airport .[6] [7] A modular trailer served as the Edgewood station building.[8] [9] The parking lot was enlarged from 150 spaces to 291 spaces in 2005. In October 2006, the state announced plans for a new station building at Edgewood.[10] Construction of the $5 million project began in September 2011 and was completed in late 2012. It included a new station building with restrooms and ticket machines, a shelter on the northbound platform, repaving of the station platforms, and ramps to the Edgewood Road underpass.[11]
Between 2001 and 2003, a single southbound Amtrak Northeast Regional train began stopping at Edgewood to supplement regular MARC service.[12] [13] The stop at Edgewood was for MARC passengers only and was not listed in Amtrak timetables.[14] Amtrak service at Edgewood was suspended in March 2020 when Amtrak reduced service due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[15] [16]
