Location

Rome station is aNeoclassical train station served byAmtrak. It is located on 6599 Martin Street inRome, New York between theNY 26-49-69 bridge and Mill Road south of theErie Canal.

FourEmpire Service trains (two westbound toNiagara Falls and two eastbound toPenn Station in New York City) stop at Rome, as do a pair ofMaple Leaf trains (one eastbound, one westbound) between Penn Station andToronto Union Station for a total of six daily departures.CENTRO of Oneida's Rome bus routes 4 and 7 also stop at the station.

The current station was built between 1912 and 1914 by theNew York Central Railroad south of the city proper to replace the former structure downtown.^[1] Such a move was necessitated by a track realignment.

The one-and-a-half-story brick building was constructed in a Neoclassical style and includes columns flanking the vestibules, decorative grillwork and large arched windows. The waiting room includes a bowed ticket window and a series of delicate triple-globed bronze chandeliers. At the rear of the waiting room are paired symmetrical staircases with ornateopenwork iron railings up to the near platform.^[3]

In 1988, Amtrak conveyed the station to the city of Rome. Amtrak proposed to close the station in 1996, but the city resisted and instead found federal funds to renovate the station. The $4 million reconstruction was finished in 2004.^[1]

The station has an unusual configuration because the building is located at grade while the tracks are on a raised embankment. The low-levelisland platform is accessed by an under-track passage; both were constructed in 2002.^[1] A side platform, now abandoned, is accessed directly from the building's second story. The platform includes enclosed passenger shelters and is heated to make snow removal unnecessary.^[1]
