Mystic Depot opened in 1905 located on Amtrak’s Northeast Corridor(NEC) at 2 Roosevelt Ave (Route 1) in Mystic, CT. Two tracks pass this historical depot, not all trains stop here because of its ground level platforms.

In the early 1960’s the train station was closed due to its poor condition. In 1976 a group of local citizens started a conversation to save the building. A year later a committee was formed and money was raised by volunteers with support from Amtrak and the state of Connecticut. In the spring of 1978 the depot was fully restored and opened to the public.

Today the depot is the welcoming center for Greater Mystic Chamber of Commerce.
