The Transportation Technology Center (TTC) is a railroad equipment testing and training facility located northeast of Pueblo, Colorado, owned by the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA). It was built in 1971 as the High Speed Ground Test Center (HSGTC) for the Department of Transportation (DOT) and its original purpose was to test several hovertrain concepts. When those projects were completed in the 1970s, the site was handed to the FRA.

Since October 2022, operations at the TTC have been managed by ENSCO, Inc. (ENSCO) under a "indefinite duration, indefinite quantity" (IDIQ) contract establishing responsibility for research and development, testing, engineering, and training services at the TTC.
