Amsterdam station is an Amtrak train station in Amsterdam, New York. It is served by four daily Empire Service round trips plus the daily Maple Leaf; the Lake Shore Limited does not stop. In earlier eras, such as the postwar 1940s, no named trains from west of Syracuse stopped there.{{cite web| title=New York Central timetable, April 1948| url=http://streamlinermemories.info/NYC/NYC48-4TT.pdf| website=Streamliner Memories}}
