Mt. Washington station is a Baltimore Light RailLink station in the Mount Washington neighborhood of northern Baltimore, Maryland. The station has two side platforms serving two tracks.
History
[edit | edit source]The station was built on the site of the defunct Northern Central Railway's Mount Washington station.[3] When the current stop opened in 1992, it had only a single track for trains traveling in either direction; a second track was added when the Light Rail's double-tracking project for this station was completed in 2005.
MTA buses do not serve the station directly due to Mount Washington Village's narrow streets. Instead, they use a bus loop along Kelly Avenue, which was constructed in 1949 as a temporary layover for buses following the removal of the Falls Road streetcar line.[4]
