Calvert Street Station

Calvert Street Station was constructed during 1849–1850 to serve as the southern terminus of the Baltimore & Susquehanna, and York & Maryland Railroad, at the intersection of North Calvert and East Franklin Streets in Baltimore,[1] just south of the original terminus at Bolton Station in Bolton Hill, which had opened in 1832.

Although the tracks of the Baltimore and Susquehanna approached from the north, the train shed was built on a curve, allowing the station to front Calvert Street to the west.

On February 23, 1861, Calvert Street Station was designated as an official stop of President-elect Abraham Lincoln's inauguration Whistle-Stop train ride from Springfield, Illinois, to Washington, D.C.

In 1873, Charles Street Station, north of the terminal, was opened, serving as a connecting point on the Philadelphia, Wilmington, and Baltimore Railroad.

In 1949, the remaining portion of the station was demolished, removing all traces of the terminal and its approaching rail tracks on Calvert Street.
