The Essex Freight Station is a railroad station located in Centerbrook, Connecticut. The station was built in 1915 by the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad along the former Connecticut Valley Railroad line. It is a single-story wood frame structure, with a low-pitch roof that has wide eaves supported by large brackets. A passenger station of similar appearance was originally located nearby, but was demolished. The station is now used by the resurrected Connecticut Valley Railroad, which offers scenic excursion trips.
The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on April 19, 1994.
