Answer:
The train depot in Flagstaff actually is in a train depot - There are lots of trains in Flagstaff!
Flagstaff's main tourist information office is the Flagstaff Visitor Center on Santa Fe Avenue, located in the historical Amtrak train depot building. Open daily and offering a range of indepth tourism information, including leaflets about prominent tourist attractions, where to stay and eat, popular hiking trails and current events information, look out for the weekly 'Flagstaff Live' magazine, a free local publication with useful entertainment information. Highlights in Flagstaff include a range of popular restaurants throughout the town, three notable national monuments, a renowned museum and the Northern Arizona University (NAU), which supports a lively and colorful community.
Flagstaff is not a mecca for shopping but there are some stores there. http://www.flagstaffmall.com/
The Grand Canyon is less than two hours from Flagstaff and a must see if you haven't seen it.
Lowell Observatory is there if that interests you. http://www.lowell.edu/
Museum of Northern Arizona http://www.musnaz.org/
That'll get you started - visit the train depot and they'll enlighten you as to tours and other things to do.
