What areas of The Station will we have access to as tour guests?

At this time tour guests will have guided access to the ground floor of The Station. Please note that areas of the station may become unavailable to tour groups without notice, due to ongoing construction or events taking place on site.

Availability:
Available tour dates and times are subject to change without notice. When completing the group inquiry form, please indicate if you are requesting a tour on a date or time that is not listed. While our team will make every effort to accommodate special requests, booking on available dates and times ensures the quickest and most reliable scheduling.

Please note that due to ongoing construction, guests may experience noise, dust, closed areas, and uneven surfaces. Expert guides will shepherd your group safely throughout the station, offering not only a tour but also a glimpse into the restoration process. Routes may vary, and access to certain areas may change without notice due to construction needs.
