Cleveland Lakefront Station is Amtrak's station in Cleveland, Ohio. The station was built in 1976 to provide service to the Lake Shore Limited route, which was reinstated by Amtrak via Cleveland and Toledo in 1975. Lakefront Station is a modern station located just north of downtown Cleveland on the Lake Erie waterfront, near the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, the Great Lakes Science Center, the Steamship William G. Mather Museum, and Cleveland Browns Stadium.

Services

Cleveland has four trains per day: the Capitol Limited (trains 29 and 30) between Washington, D.C. and Chicago, and the Lake Shore Limited (trains 48/448 and 49/449) between Chicago and New York City/Boston. As of November 2011, these trains were scheduled to arrive/depart from Cleveland at various times between the hours of 12:59 a.m. and 5:50 a.m.[2][3]

The Cleveland RTA Rapid Waterfront Line will stop at the station upon request. However, the Waterfront Line currently does not run during most of the time interval that includes Amtrak arrivals or departures.
