Ticonderoga, often referred to as Fort Ticonderoga, is an Amtrak intercity train station in Ticonderoga, New York. It is served by the Adirondack, and is 400 yards from the ferry to Shoreham, Vermont.[3] Unlike the Port Kent station which also serves a cross-lake ferry, Ticonderoga is enclosed and is not seasonal. The current station opened on August 13, 1991.

The station has a former Delaware and Hudson Railway station that is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It is not served by Amtrak or any other railroad, however. It also served as the terminus of the Addison Railroad, a Central Vermont Railway line leading to Leicester Junction, Vermont.[4]

The station has one low-level side platform on the west side of the track.
