'''Terre Haute station''', also known as the Big Four Depot, was a [[train station]] in [[Terre Haute, Indiana]].

Construction on the [[Big Four Railroad]] station started in 1898 and it opened to passengers on July 27, 1899.<ref>{{cite book |last1=McCormick |first1=Mike |title=Terre Haute: Queen City of the Wabash |date=2005 |publisher=[[Arcadia Publishing]] |isbn=9780738524061 |page=98}}</ref> The station served Big Four (Cleveland, Cincinnati, Chicago and St. Louis Railway) trains, and after the railroad was absorbed into the [[New York Central]], it served trains under that name.

The station was on the New York Central's St. Louis - Indianapolis - Cleveland corridor, and it served several named trains on that route. The trains heading toward Cleveland included ''Missourian'' (St. Louis - New York City, with a section to Detroit), ''[[Southwestern Limited (New York Central train)|Southwestern Limited]]'' (St. Louis - New York City), as well as named and unnamed trains running strictly between St. Louis and Cleveland.<ref>New York Central timetable, June 17, 1951, Tables 16, 17 https://streamlinermemories.info/NYC/NYC51-6TT.pdf</ref>

The [[Amtrak]] ''[[National Limited (Amtrak train)|National Limited]]'' (Kansas City–New York City and Washington, D.C.) ceased operation on October 1, 1979, ending rail service to the city.<ref>{{cite news |last1=Bennett |first1=Mark |title=Train travel chugs back into Valley conversations |url=https://www.tribstar.com/opinion/mark-bennett-train-travel-chugs-back-into-valley-conversations/article_93fe1518-facd-52e3-82f8-7ebdf5e57fe0.html |access-date=21 December 2021 |agency=[[Tribune-Star]] |date=April 25, 2009}}</ref><ref name="nlends1979">{{cite news |title=Burger Overturns Court Order Extending National Limited's Life |url=https://www.newspapers.com/clip/25630706/amtrak_national_limited_october_1_1979/ |access-date=November 23, 2018 |work=The Indianapolis Star |date=October 1, 1979 |page=6|via=Newspapers.com}} {{open access}}</ref> It was demolished in 1986.
