The Glenwood Springs station is a railway station in Glenwood Springs, Colorado. It is served by Amtrak's California Zephyr, which runs once daily between Chicago and Emeryville, California in the San Francisco Bay Area.[3]

The Glenwood Springs station was originally built by the Denver and Rio Grande Western Railroad (D&RGW) in 1904, and sits close to the southern bank of the Colorado River. The station is composed of brick and Frying Pan River red sandstone, while the roof line is done in a jerkinhead, or Half-hip roof style. The entrance is flanked by medieval-inspired brick towers with pyramidal roofs.[4] The Glenwood Railroad Museum occupies the former Ladies' Waiting Room.[4]

The station also serves as one of two Greyhound bus stops in Glenwood Springs. However, The Roaring Fork Transportation Authority city bus does not stop here.[5]

On June 7, 1977 Amtrak introduced the Pioneer, with service between Chicago and Seattle. On October 28, 1979, Amtrak initiated the Desert Wind service between Chicago and Los Angeles. Both trains serviced Glenwood Springs. In 1991, the Pioneer was rerouted through Wyoming, and no longer stopped in Glenwood Springs. Both the Desert Wind and the Pioneer were discontinued on May 10, 1997. The California Zephyr entered service on April 24, 1983, and services Glenwood Springs to this day.

According to the Amtrak Fact Sheet (Colorado), Fiscal Year 2016, Glenwood Springs was the second busiest of the nine Colorado stations served by Amtrak.[2]

The station and the town feature in an episode of the BBC television series Around the World in 80 Days.[6]
