Barberton was a train station along the Erie Railroad main line in the city of Barberton, Summit County, Ohio, United States. Located from Hoboken Terminal on the Kent Division of the main line, the station first saw service in 1890 while under ownership of the New York, Pennsylvania and Ohio Railroad, a subsidiary of the Erie, to be help bring people to the new community. The last passenger train to go through Barberton was terminated as of August 1, 1965, with the cancellation of the Atlantic Express (eastbound) Pacific Express (westbound), multi-day trains from Hoboken to Dearborn Station in Chicago, Illinois.

Located at 356 4th Street NW, the city of Barberton was a big part of the large rubber manufacturing area in and around nearby Akron.

The depot has also been important stops for several Presidents of the United States, including two campaign stops for Theodore Roosevelt and William Howard Taft, as well as the funeral train for Warren G.
