Amtrak is a seemingly underutilized asset in Washington, Missouri.  Amtrak stops in Washington four times daily -- twice headed east and twice headed west.  Fares vary based on destination -- a round trip ticket between Washington and St. Louis, Missouri is just $22 as of 03/25/08.  The train schedule is available on Amtrak's website.

 

The train station also houses the Washington, Missouri Visitor's Center and the Mid-Missouri Fine Arts Gallery.

 

A winter photo of the train station can be seen in this previous article on WashMo.com.
