Can I store luggage at New Haven Union Station?
I'm think of traveling from Providence to New Haven by train next month and I want to get off the train for a few hours to see the Yale Art Gallery. Is there anywhere in the station or nearby to store luggage?

I actually have changed my lans simply because there is nowhere convenient to store my luggage. I'll juts go straight from Providence to New York. I hear they have stuff there too.

Looks like it may be too late for you - but if it would work, could you check in your luggage at PVD the night before your trip, and check it through to NYP? The overnight train has a baggage car. I have done some variation of this many times, though never specifically from PVD, and have never had a problem.

I totally forgot about this. I have never checked luggage on amtrak but I have heard that it is very easy but involves extra trips before or after to grab the luggage since not every train has it.
