Nice. Reminds me of Deshler, OH crossings.

Bob, wasn't this a "Union" station?? I believe everyone except the Pennsy stopped here.
I have never heard of any Pennsy passenger service in Marion, OH, and don't know if
they had a separate depot.

It could be a union station. Several railroads did use it.
