This former station was built around 1925 as a Linco station. It became a Marathon station in the 1940s. The building is octagonal in shape. The square building to the right was used as a service garage. The station closed around 1968 and has been vacant since then. The buildings were restored sometime in 2007. In 2012, the buildings were put up for auction. It's not clear if the buildings will be preserved or razed for new development. For more, see these websites: 1, 2, and 3.
