WASHINGTON, DC HEAVY RAIL
At College Park |
|
|
|
On a rainy day near the end of the Conrail era, a freight heads toward DC while an inbound Green Line train picks up
passengers at College Park-University of Maryland station.
Passengers may descend from the Metro platform here and use a pedestrian
grade crossing to head toward the campus.
There is a
small MARC commuter rail station at this location, along the former B&O route between Union
Station and Baltimore. From the platform looking south, away from
the camera, one sees the rapid transit line arcing over the railroad
tracks along a sweeping bridge. It's a highly pleasant place at which to linger.
The Green Line's terminal to the northeast is one stop further
out, at Greenbelt. |
