Jackson

"Jackson’s Amtrak station, Union Station, is located pretty close to downtown, just short of a one-mile walk to Jackson State University. The station is a basic set up with a ticket window, restrooms, plenty of bench seating although it also has a small food court option. The station is also an intermodal facility because there are connections available to Greyhound as well as the local transit (JTran). There are also some food and lodging options in the immediate area of the station. Mississippi’s state capitol building is about a mile to the northeast of the station and close to the Governor’s Mansion, the Old Capitol Museum and the Mississippi Civil Rights Museum."
