Ocean City 34th Street Station, was located in Ocean City, New Jersey. The station was built in 1885 by the Ocean City Railroad, which was acquired by the Atlantic City Railroad in 1901, and later by the Pennsylvania-Reading Seashore Lines. Trains last served the station in August 1981, when service was cancelled due to poor track conditions and limited funding from the New Jersey Department of Transportation.^[3]

The station was added to the National Register of Historic Places on June 22, 1984. It has since been demolished.^[4]
