Agnew station is a former railway station in Santa Clara County, California, in what is now the city of Santa Clara. The station was built in 1877 and originally served the narrow-gaugeSouth Pacific Coast Railroad. Landowner Abram Agnew donated 4 acres (1.6 ha) to the railroad to build a station and laid out the settlement that would become known as Agnew's Village. (The station was similarly referred to as Agnew's.)[1][2] The line and station came under the ownership of the Southern Pacific Railroad in 1887.[3] The station building was purchased by the California Central Model Railroad Club in 1963 after passenger and freight services ceased — the rail line remains active. The building was made a City of Santa Clara Historic Landmark in 1988.[4]
