Grand Trunk Station is a historic railroad station in Lewiston, Maine.

The station, located at the corner of Lincoln and Beech Streets, was built in 1874 by the Lewiston and Auburn Railroad Company and leased to the Grand Trunk Railway, connecting Lewiston with the Canadian National Railway.^[2] Many French-Canadian immigrants arrived in the Lewiston-Auburn area via the station, leading the building to be known as the "Ellis Island" of Lewiston.^[3]

The railroad station was added to the National Historic Register in 2001. After rail service to the station stopped, it lay abandoned for decades, and various uses for the building were proposed.^[4] In 2010, the Lewiston and Auburn Railroad Company was awarded a Recovery Act grant by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) to renovate Grand Trunk Railroad Station.^[3]
