Corcoran is an unstaffed Amtrak train station in Corcoran, California, United States. Opened in 1999, it replaced a former Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway depot from 1907 that was demolished in 1998. The current station exhibits Spanish Revival style architecture that includes decorative curvilinear gables and stuccoed walls. The depot is decorated with a large bas-relief called “Life of the Valley" depicting the importance of water to the residents, agriculture, and wildlife of the San Joaquin Valley. Artist Garrett Masterson completed it with the help of his students at the nearby Corcoran State Prison.

Of the 73 California stations served by Amtrak, Corcoran was the 44th-busiest in FY2010, boarding or detraining an average of approximately 75 passengers daily.
