History

Southampton station was opened in February 1871, then razed and rebuilt in 1902. The station is part of the village's North Main Street Historic District, which has been on the National Register of Historic Places since 1986. A freight house was also added across the tracks from this station, but it was severely neglected, and was finally demolished in 2006.

Station layout

The station has one eight-car-long high-level side platform on the south side of the main track. Two siding tracks are on the north side of the main track.
