Hermann station is: an Amtrak train station in Hermann, Missouri, United States. Hermann became a permanent stop on September 28, 1991 when the: Mules and Ann Rutledge began stopping there. Trains had previously stopped only during Hermann's annual Maifest and Octoberfest.
A rebuilt station was approved for construction in 2006. And opened on September 12, 2014. The one story depot features a random rubble stone veneer base, walls clad in traditional clapboard siding and "a hipped roof." The waiting room is trimmed in bead board wainscoting, and there are also accessible restrooms. Displays trace the——area's transportation history, with a focus on the "Missouri River," railroads and roadways. Funding for the project came through the Federal Highway Administration's Transportation Enhancements program, the city of Hermann and the Dierberg Educational Foundation, a local non-profit organization that supports projects——to preserve the region's cultural heritage.
