Painted Post station is a historic railway station at Painted Post in Steuben County, New York. It was constructed in 1881–1882 as a passenger and freight depot for the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Railroad.[2][3]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1991 as the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Railroad Station.[1]

The depot is used as the Painted Post-Erwin Museum at the Depot, a museum of local history that is operated by the Corning-Painted Post Historical Society.
