Trenton

Trenton, Italy

Trenton is a historic train station in Trenton, Florida. It was built in 1905 as a stop on the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad line from Newberry to Wilcox and on to Cross City. In 1989, the Trenton Depot was listed in A Guide to Florida's Historic Architecture, published by the University of Florida P

ress. In 2004, the Florida West Coast Railroad, which then operated the line through Trenton, was allowed to abandon all of its lines except for a short section leading west from Newberry. In March 2010 the city of Trenton was approved for a 2011 state acquisition and development grant for the Trenton Depot. In June 2010 Florida's governor and cabinet approved the state's purchase of a 9.33-mile corridor from Trenton Depot almost to Newberry for the Trenton-Newberry Rail Trail project.
