The Bismarck station in Bismarck, North Dakota was built in 1900 by the Northern Pacific Railway. It is in Mission/Spanish Revival style and was designed by architects Reed & Stem. It "is notable for its Spanish mission-style architecture, a familiar mode in the Southwest and California but uncommon in the northern plains." After the Northern Pacific Railway and then Burlington Northern Railroad discontinued passenger service, Amtrak's North Coast Hiawatha used the station from 1971 until it was discontinued in 1979.
