Miles City station
The Miles City station of Miles City, Montana is located at 500 Pacific Avenue and was built in 1924. It was a replacement commissioned to be designed by the Northern Pacific Railway in 1922 despite economic downturn that had reduced prosperity in Miles City, hoping for improvement that never came along. The station served Miles City for 50 years.[2] The station also served Amtrak's North Coast Hiawatha from 1971 until 1979.
