Water Street Station is a former station of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad in Wilmington, Delaware, designed by Frank Furness.[1] The station was located on the eastern end of the B&O's Landenberg branch, roughly parallel to the Northeast Corridor of the Pennsylvania Railroad. The station served only trains terminating in Wilmington; through trains used a separate station at Delaware Avenue to the northwest. Another user of the station was the Wilmington and Northern Railroad, later controlled by the Reading Company.[2]
