Coolidge station was a train station in Coolidge, Arizona, served by Amtrak's Sunset Limited and Texas Eagle trains.[1] Amtrak service to this station was discontinued in June 1996 when trains were rerouted to Maricopa.

As of 2023, Amtrak is planning to restore train service to Coolidge on a route between Phoenix and Tucson. The exact station location has yet to be determined.[2] In addition, the FRA indicated in February 2023 that it was studying a re-route of the Sunset Limited from Maricopa back to Phoenix as part of the Long-Distance Service Study ordered by the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act. It is not known if the Sunset Limited would again stop in Coolidge.[3]
