Morristown station is a historic train station located at Morristown, Shelby County, Indiana. It was built in 1867–1868 by the Junction Railroad, and is a simple one-story, rectangular, building of pinned beam construction. It has a gable roof that extends to shelter a loading platform for 30 feet (9.1 m). The building served as both a grain elevator and train depot. It was moved to its present site in 1976 to prevent it from demolition.[2]: 2 

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979 as the Junction Railroad Depot.[1]
