The Tuscaloosa Amtrak Station, located in Tuscaloosa, AL, is served by the passenger train The Crescent.. The street address is 2105 Greensboro Avenue, near the intersection of Greensboro and Hargrove Road, one mile south of downtown Tuscaloosa. The station was originally operated by the Southern Railway, and was one of the last railroad-operated active passenger stations in the country, as the Southern Crescent (pedecessor to the current Amtrak train) was still operated by the Southern well into the Amtrak era.

In FY07, on average, twenty-two passengers daily boarded or detrained at Tuscaloosa, making it the second-busiest Amtrak station in Alabama.
