As a recap, the four hints so far are as follows:

1. The station is along a route that was once served by the Southern Pacific and is a current Amtrak station.

2. The station is not in California or Nevada. It is, however, located in a desert setting.

3. Amtrak stops here in the daytime only.

ALPINE?

I defered to others on this one since it's my Birthplace and I have caught the Train many a time here going back to the Steamer days on the SP!!! I saw my First President here, "Give 'em Hell" Harry Truman, during his 1948 Whistle stop Campaign! I too have been to many of these Stations, and like to look @ all of them, but @ my age remembering them is another thing! :lol: :lol: :lol:
