WASHINGTON, DC HEAVY RAIL
Old Airport Terminal |
|
|
The station at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport serves the Yellow and Blue
Lines. It
was the final stop south during the early Metro years, and it is one of the few stations
anywhere on the system with three
tracks.
This photo is from a time before the
modern airline terminal was constructed. It was a long hike or a
shuttle bus ride to or from the congested old building. The station
name was simply National Airport then.
Only six of the system's 86 stations are classified as "aerial."
Of the rest, 47 are in subway, and 33 are at surface. |
