New Albany and Salem Railroad Station, also known as Monon Station, was a historic train station located at New Albany, Indiana. The head-house was built about 1851, and was a two-story rectangular brick head-house. It had one-story wings and a long train shed at the rear added in the late 19th century.[2]: 2
The station was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.[1] The building caught fire in March 1995, weakening the structure. It was torn down later that year.[3] It was subsequently delisted from the National Register in 1996.
