This is one of many surviving old train stations found around Maryland. Both Stevenson and nearby Brooklandville Station are both standing and appear to be in excellent condition. Stevenson Depot is currently used as offices. It had been a Post Office for years after use as a train station .
Back in the day, the Station was located between Lystra Station to the East and Eccleston Station to the West, both those old stations long since gone. ( Information found in ” Green Spring Accommodation”, an excellent source by Martin K. Van Horn & Robert L. Williams )
