Description


Hampstead Train Station


After more than seven years of work the Hampstead Train Station restoration project is finally completed. The Hampstead Train Station Committee has transformed the once dilapidated building into a museum to showcase Hampstead’s history.

The Hampstead Train Station was originally constructed in 1912 and served Hampstead and the surrounding area as a passenger and freight station until the late 1960’s. Until the modern roadway system was constructed, the railroad was the best method of transporting farm goods to Baltimore and to bring manufactured goods from Baltimore to Hampstead. Log books found in the station chronicle every item that was received and shipped from the station.

The theme of the museum showcases the role played by the Hampstead Train Station in the development of the Town and how the town depended on the railroad for its supplies and dry goods. The visitor’s center sells everything Hampstead; hats, tee shirts, golf shirts, mugs, pens, balloons, whistles, patches, and many other items. The railroad depot is located at 4035 Gill Avenue in Hampstead Maryland.
