The Willmar station of Willmar, Minnesota was built in 1948, replacing an 1892 Cass Gilbert designed depot.[1] [2] It served the Great Northern Railway and its successor Burlington Northern until 1971. Thereafter, passenger service continued under Amtrak, but with only a single route through Willmar, the Empire Builder. After the North Coast Hiawatha, which ran on the former Northern Pacific Railway line from Minneapolis to Fargo, ended service in 1979, the Empire Builder moved to that corridor.[3] [4]
