I live in Tacoma and I didn't even know that we had a brand-new, bright and shiny Amtrak station attached to Freighthouse Square at 422 E 25th Street. It looks like a safer place to park overnight than the old station.

As of November 18, 2021, this station is permanently closed. Amtrak trains now stop at the nearby Tacoma Dome Station, 424 East 25th St., Tacoma WA 98421.

Not a big station at all. There are a couple of pricey vending machines, a glassed in ticketing area that's reminiscent of a prison guard station, and a small, dated waiting area that doesn't accommodate many seated people in the time of social distancing.

Its a shame the ACTUAL TRAIN STATION in Tacoma is now a courthouse. It will DO I SUPPOSE. I miss UNion Station when it was ACTUALLY A TRAIN STATION!

Carolyn Clapp | Aug 11, 2022
West Cascade Rail | Aug 12, 2022

No. The Empire Builder goes from Seattle to Chicago, not Tacoma. You will need to board at King Street Station in Seattle.

Are there any bars nearby?

Can you rent a car from this location

Alma Montijo | Aug 11, 2022
David Hildebrand | Aug 12, 2022

No, it's a very small station, limited parking, so the closet rental places are a few miles downtown.

Is there free parking for extended trips about a week?

Valerie Martin | Aug 11, 2022
David Hildebrand | Aug 12, 2022

I have not seen any signage saying otherwise. But as Chris said, it's not the best neighborhood and I don't think it's monitored by video at night.

In Portland, is there more than one Amtrac station? If so, which one would be closest to the Pearl District?

Joyce Neeley | Aug 11, 2022
David Hildebrand | Aug 12, 2022

I'd broach that with the Portland location, unless you are referring to the Pearl district in Tacoma. There is only the one stop, then it's either a bus or ride-sharing trip.

How early should you be at the station for a 10:30ish departure? Also, do they serve food/drinks on train or can you bring own? Restrooms?

Bob Baltutat | Aug 11, 2022
David Hildebrand | Aug 12, 2022

I believe it is recommended to be there at least 30 minutes prior to scheduled departure. Food is available on board as well as drinks. Restrooms too. Bring your own food? Not a hundred percent sure

Three of us traveling--one from Edmonds, two from Tacoma--to Portland. How can we make sure we get on the same car? Amtrack Cascades

First come first serve. What I try to do is let people know I have someone coming aboard and if its at all possible to save a seat. Most times people will be kind enough.

About a third of a mile, uphill.

How much does it cost for a senior citizen to go one way from Tacoma yo Salem

Sara Hall | Aug 11, 2022
JD Schwerdtfeger | Aug 12, 2022

Hello Sara, The one way ticket price for a senior citizen to ride from Tacoma to Salem is $35.10 if you book the ticket at least 48 hours in advance. The ticket prices go up as availability goes down. Last minute ticket purchase will cost exactly twice ($70.20). If you find yourself in this predicament choose to purchase a. business class ticket for $66.00 and you get a $6.00 food voucher and a bottle of drinking water. I have ridden both ways and it is a pleasant trip. One other thing to keep in mind is that not all routes are train direct. Some are a combination of train and bus so be careful how you book your ticket...

Chris Clanton | Aug 11, 2022
Laurie Rice | Aug 12, 2022

There isn't a parking garage. There is no fee to park there but I wouldn't risk leaving a vehicle there as it may be vandalized or towed.

Torgeous Luka | Aug 11, 2022

There is free short term parking for customers. However, that station is in a bad area of town so don't leave anything valuable in your vehicle if you're not going to be back until after dark.

I need to park at the Tacoma Amtrak Station for 2 nights before I can return to get my car. Is this possible? Or will they tow my car.....?

Sharon Lacey | Aug 11, 2022
Laurie Rice | Aug 12, 2022

It is NOT a good idea to leave your car there for two nights. Tacoma Amtrak Station is located in a bad area of town and parking is not secured. I know of no secured parking lots nearby. Your best bet is to take a cab or Uber there.

Can I get from the Dome to Bellingham after the Maroon 5 concert May 30th?

Terri Soukup | Aug 11, 2022
Megan Hall | Aug 12, 2022

The last train going that far North is before 7pm, so you would have to stay the night and take a morning train. Go to the Amtrak website and put in Tacoma to Bellingham for the day after to see your train options.

Go to the Amtrak website and select "book now" (you don't have to proceed to checkout). Enter in Tacoma and LV and it will show you all the route options. It looks like you'll have to take a train, then two buses, then another train.

Charles Berger | Aug 11, 2022
Laurie Rice | Aug 12, 2022

You don't want to leave your car overnight in the parking lot. It's in a bad area for theft. There are no secured parking areas nearby that I know of. You would be better off having a friend, cab or Uber dropping you off at the station.
