Hodgeville was a station on the Lockport Branch of the Erie Railroad in the town of Pendleton, Niagara County, NY.

The small station was on the north/west side of the tracks and the south side of Hodgeville Road, now called Mapleton Road. I have not found any photos of the station.

History

The line was constructed in 1878 by the Lockport and Buffalo Railroad. In 1898 it was leased by the Buffalo and Lockport Railway, an electric railroad. The line was later operated by the Buffalo, Lockport and Olcott Beach Railway, the Buffalo & Niagara Electric Street Railway, and the International Railway Company. In 1951 the Erie Railroad began operating the line again and the line was operated by the Erie Lackawanna Railroad (1960 – 1976) before being abandoned in the mid-1970s with the creation of the Consolidated Rail Corporation (Conrail).
