I did not ride the train from here but visited the station and did a little train photography (or…read moretried). So a limited review. This is a classic passenger station. Lots of history has run thru here. Great old school waiting area that harkens back to more simple times. The station is in great condition too. Thank God vagrants have not taken over. The train was predictably late (Amtrak!) but no one seemed to mind. A fun way to travel when you don't need to drive.

We arrived on Cascade #504 and departed on Cascades #507. After arriving (about one half hour…read morelate) we headed immediately to Freighthouse Square for lunch. After lunch we returned to the station to see a familiar looking train in station. We were informed that it was the same train we had arrived on, Cascade #504. It was there because Cascade #517 had killed a trespasser a few miles north of the station and it would be at least an hour before it could leave. The station attendant kept us informed as the situation evolved. Meantime, we talked to other waiting passengers and used the very clean restrooms. Finally, Cascade #504 departed. A few minutes later Cascade #517 arrived and most of the passengers in the station boarded the train. About 15 minutes later, Cascade #507 arrived on Track 2 forcing us to walk to the nearby intersection, cross the tracks, and walk back to the train. We departed Tacoma over an hour late. Overall we were satisfied with our experience at the Tacoma Dome Station. Footnote: the equipment used on both trains was badly in need of upgrades.

The station primarily servers Amtrak trains, but there's adjacent entrance to the subway line as well, accessible via the ramp. The main building of the station has the iconic clock tower. The station's interior was also beautiful, with high ceilings, art decor on the walls, marble floors and shafts. There were plenty of benches for passengers to sit. Multiple displays were showing the arrival times of the trains. The atmosphere inside the station was much nicer than its exterior suddronding. Once we got to the station, we went to the baggage drop off area. A friendly staff member behind the counter helped us with weighing both of our luggages, tagging them and lining them up for the train. Our train arrived at the platform on time. Our tickets were checked at the door. Staff members were available on the platform to help us find the correct car. Overall I had a wonderful experience of boarding Amtrak train for the first time ever from this station.

Security came and asked if they need to call ambulance. Some words exchanged. Didn't escalate the situation. We left around that point. I think the security handled it well. Hopefully the guy got medical attention.

It is located prominently in downtown Tacoma, right along Pacific Avenue near the Tacoma Art Museum, Washington State History Museum, and Chihuly Bridge of Glass. From the outside, the building is stately and eye-catching with its large, sweeping arches and brick exterior. From the inside, it's even more beautiful, though, with the largest collection of Dale Chihuly artwork in town - and it's completely free to come in and see it. Photo I.D. is required for entry. Union Station is worth seeing...

The ghosts of trains and travelers still haunt these hallowed halls. In its heyday this was THE…read moremain commuter train station for Tacoma. With the decline in rail service due to a variety of reasons we will NOT go into here, the need for these large cathedrals of transit diminished and the budget money better spent elsewhere. Thankfully the structure was NOT demolished like NYC did to Penn Station and so many other of these architectural gems throughout the country. Instead it was turned into a courthouse. Tell the guard at the door you'd just like to look around, and he will run you through the metal detector and you can wander pretty much at will. One flight down you find a small, and I mean VERY small museum of sorts. Encased behind several in-wall glass cases, you will find the remnants of old tickets, route flyers, and old devices like an old telegraph ticker. Although, I am sure they had telephones when they shut down service in the 60s. I only wish the museum had been more extensive. Or that maybe they would have had an actual train there or something. Dream on. If you really are a train buff and you want to see stuff like that, you can search for train museums here on Yelp, Like the Northwest train Museum. Anyway, I wouldn't go out of my way to go see this, but, If you're in downtown Tacoma and curious like I was, and enjoy older architecture, then, it is worth a look. It's really only about a 20 minute proposition. Oh, there is a giant Chihuly hanging in the main concourse. You can't miss it. Also. apparently they are a wedding venue. So if you're getting hitched (no pun intended) in Tacoma, you might want to take a look too.
