Okay, time for this Maryland resident to chime in.

The B&O Aberdeen, Md. depot, as of a couple months ago, was a derelict relic 
surrounded by barbed-wire-topped chain-link fence, the target of a couple 
preservation efforts that have seemingly stalled.

The PRR Aberdeen station has indeed been refurbished, but has no real 
redeeming architectural value:

Perryville's PRR depot is the restored one, and as a note it's absolutely 
identical to the PRR station in Northumberland, Pa., now a restaurant with 
two Lackawanna passenger cars built on to it:
