Essex station is a stop on Amtrak's Empire Builder line in Essex, Montana, United States. Essex has a year-round population of less than 50; most passengers are visitors to the historic Izaak Walton Inn located about away.
There currently is no station building. Essex is a flag stop. The stop is skipped in the event that there are no passengers listed in AmtrakâÂÂs digital reservation system to alight or board at the station.
Between 1970 and 1985 there were no regular stops at Essex. In late 2010, Amtrak built a concrete platform with embedded heating coils for automatic snow clearance to replace the former asphalt platform, and also added additional lighting and fencing.
In February 2026, it was announced that the Inn will close permanently on March 1, 2026, rendering the future of the station unclear.
