The Lincoln Amtrak station is a train station in Lincoln, Nebraska, United States served by Amtrak, the national railroad passenger system. It is served daily by the California Zephyr.
Due to the construction of a new sports arena, the tracks used by the California Zephyr will be relocated, meaning that a new station building will be built about 700 feet (210 m) to the west of the current facility.[2] The new station will be about 2,750 square feet (255 m2), with an 800 feet (240 m) platform and will cost about $1.9 million.[2]
