Burlington Union Station, located on Main Street on the Lake Champlain waterfront in Burlington, Vermont. This Beaux Arts-style building was constructed in 1916 and served as a hub for the Rutland Railroad and Central Vermont Railway. It ceased passenger services in 1953 but resumed its role in July 2022 as the northern terminal for Amtrak’s Ethan Allen Express, connecting Burlington to New York City. The station features a single side platform serving both Amtrak and Vermont Railway excursion trains. Today it also houses offices and event spaces. Union Station is also known for its distinctive winged monkey statues added in the 1990s.
