Hinton is an Amtrak station in Hinton, West Virginia, served by the Cardinal. The station is a former Chesapeake and Ohio Railway depot.

Due to a bend in the adjacent New River, eastbound trains actually head southwest when passing the station (and vice versa).

Of the ten West Virginia stations served by Amtrak, Hinton was the third busiest in FY2010, boarding or detraining an average of approximately 24 passengers daily.^[2]
