"Memphis Central Station is located slightly south of downtown about a 10-minute walk to multiple parks along the waterfront of the Mississippi River. Connection can be made to the MATA Trolley.
Far more busy in its past life (serving 10 tracks) the station only sees a northbound and southbound CONO train per day. The original terminal building has been renovated to include a Hilton hotel and there are plenty of options for things to do in the area.
FedEx Forum (NBA’s Grizzlies) is about a mile walk from the station along with the Memphis Rock n’ Soul Museum and the Beale Street Entertainment District. Closer by is the Blues Hall of Fame and the Memphis Farmer’s Market.
On the current schedule, the train is set to arrive northbound around 10:20 p.m., while southbound is a roughly 6:30 a.m. arrival. However, the recent changes (which appear to be temporary) have the train arriving two hours earlier in each direction meaning a less-than-ideal 4:30 a.m. stop on the way to New Orleans."
