Latrobe Station is an Amtrak rail station located about 40 miles east of Pittsburgh at 329 McKinley Avenue, Latrobe, Pennsylvania. The station is near the center of the city. Latrobe station is only served by Amtrak Pennsylvanian trains, which operate once per day in each direction.

An old railroad station building exists at the stop, but it is not currently used for rail traffic; it is a restaurant. There is also no ticket office at this station. There is a small shelter building with bench seats at the platform (no restrooms). The station is a flag stop, due to the small number of users.

The Westmoreland County Transit Authority has one bus route, Route 9/9A - Greensburg/Latrobe/Derry, that stops adjacent to the train station and one other route, Route 20F - New Florence/Greensburg, that stops within 1/4 mile of the station. Greyhound also has an intercity bus stop about 1/4 mile from the station, at 803 Alexandria Street.
