Williams Depot is a historic, privately-owned train station situated in the heart of Williams, Arizona. In 1882, the first railroad to travel through the city of Williams was built by the Atlantic and Pacific Railroad Company, part of the transcontinental railroad – western division.

On September 17th of 1901, the first passenger train ran from Williams to Grand Canyon South Rim. Now the headquarters and southern terminus for Grand Canyon Railway, Williams Depot contains a restaurant, ticket counter, restroom facilities, a coffee stand, and gift shop.

The original building that housed the Fray Marcos Hotel still remains, and is Arizona’s oldest poured-concrete structure. Visitors will have the chance to check-out classic railroad cars and learn all about western railroad history.
