Cut Bank station

Cut Bank station is a train station in Cut Bank, Montana. It is served by Amtrak's Empire Builder, and is an important regional railway freight yard for BNSF Railway, which operates several grain collection elevators in the yard.

The station is less than a mile from Cut Bank Creek gorge, which gives the county seat, station, and yard their names.
