"The final stop on the Silver Star and Silver Meteor trains is Miami Station located about 20 minutes northwest of downtown in Hialeah. It is an old-school station, similar to the Amshack buildings but slightly more updated and larger. The interior has a large seating area, restrooms and luggage check/tickets.
There isn’t a whole lot in the immediate area of the current Amtrak station as it is mostly residential, however, the Tri-Rail/Metrorail Transfer Station is about a 10-minute walk from the Amtrak station. At this location, one can connect to trains to get closer to downtown Miami.
One item of note regarding the location of the current Miami Station: Amtrak has been in negotiations about moving its service to the Miami Intermodal Center (MIC), which is located about five miles south - near Miami Airport - of the current spot and therefore closer to the city’s downtown. Negotiations have been supposedly on-going for several years, so as of March 2024, there is no date in sight for service to begin at the new location."
