Guadalupe station (also known as Guadalupe–Santa Maria) is an Amtrak train station in the city of Guadalupe, California. The station primarily serves the larger city of Santa Maria, located 8 miles (13 km) to the east.

Guadalupe station is served by four Amtrak Pacific Surfliner trains (two in each direction).[3]

History

[edit]

Service to the station began in July 1998.[4] A new station was built to replace the former structure, which was demolished around 1974. The new station was built in a Spanish Colonial Revival style featuring a barrel red-tiled roof and white stuccoed walls, similar to that of older train stations in Southern California.[4] The San Diegan was renamed Pacific Surfliner in 2000.
