Location

Granby station is a train station in Granby, Colorado. It is served by Amtrak's California Zephyr, which runs once daily between Chicago and Emeryville, California, in the San Francisco Bay Area.^{[Note 1]} Despite its antiquated appearance and structure (the station is made of wood), the station was built in 1987.

Granby is proposed as a station to use for access of the Rocky Mountain National Park by train.^[4] However, while the train ride (from the Denver side) provides impressive views, the station itself lies 16 miles (26 km) from the park, without public transportation connections.

^ As of January 13, 2014, the previous schedule continues with the westbound train (Route 5) scheduled to stop at 10:37 am and the eastbound train (Route 6) scheduled to stop at 3:12 pm.^[3]
