The Old Colony Railroad Station, also known as the North Easton Railroad Station, is a historic railroad station designed by noted American architect H. H. Richardson. It is located just off Oliver Street in North Easton, Massachusetts, and currently houses the Easton Historical Society, and was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1972. In 1987 it also became part of the H. H. Richardson Historic District of North Easton, a National Historic Landmark District. The historic station will be joined by the modern Easton Village station as part of the South Coast Rail project. ==History== The station was commissioned in 1881 by Frederick Lothrop Ames, director of the Old Colony Railroad, during the same year that Richardson designed the Ames Gate Lodge for his nearby estate. Frederick Law Olmsted landscaped its grounds. In 1969, the Ames family purchased the property from the Penn Central Railroad and gave it to the historical society. A new MBTA Commuter Rail station, Easton Village, is planned to be built at the site as part of the South Coast Rail project. An high-level platform will be constructed across the track from the historic building.
