History
The original Woodburn station was built in 1871 by the Oregon and California Railroad (later Southern Pacific Railroad) as part of the main line connecting Portland to San Francisco. Woodburn became an important agricultural hub in the Willamette Valley, and the station served as a vital point for passenger and freight traffic. Passenger rail service saw various changes and decline in the mid-20th century. Amtrak, formed in 1971, consolidated intercity passenger rail operations. The current station facility, a modern structure, was built around 1996 to replace an older depot, specifically to serve the re-launched Amtrak Cascades service in the Pacific Northwest Corridor.Services

The station is a flag stop for some trains, meaning trains only stop if passengers are scheduled to board or alight.Station Layout and Facilities
The station features a single side platform adjacent to two main tracks. A small, unstaffed shelter provides cover for passengers. Basic amenities include a waiting area and accessible facilities. Parking is available for passengers. Connections to local transit services (Salem Area Mass Transit District - SAMTD) are available nearby.Future
