Euclid Avenue, known after 1953 as Cleveland station, was a former railroad station at the corner of Euclid Avenue and East 55th Street in Cleveland. The station was originally at ground level, but the tracks were later elevated. Euclid Avenue station served as the terminus of the line in its final years because of the closure and demolition of Cleveland Union Depot. The old station house was demolished, but a vault built when the tracks were elevated remains partially intact in 2021.
This train station was a stop on both President Lincoln's President Garfield's funeral trains. The caskets were unloaded and paraded to Public Square. Lincoln was brought from Buffalo to Cleveland Union Depot and proceeded to Euclid. Garfield was brought up from Pittsburgh on the PRR line to Cleveland.
The tracks were elevated in 1914.
President Hoover stopped at the station in 1933.
