The Miles City station of Miles City, Montana is located at 500 Pacific Avenue and was built in 1924. It was a replacement commissioned to be designed by the Northern Pacific Railway in 1922 despite economic downturn that had reduced prosperity in Miles City. The station served Miles City for 50 years.[2] The station also served Amtrak's North Coast Hiawatha from 1971 until 1979.

The station was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2010, as the Northern Pacific Railway Depot.[1]
