Washington DC’s Newest Station: Potomac Yard

In May 0f 2023, it finally opened: Potomac Yard station, on the Washington DC Metro. Built on the site of an old railyard in Alexandria, VA, Potomac Yard is the second infill station in the history of the metro. Join Thom as he travels there and checks out all the new facilities, including the platforms, mezzanine, elevators, and bicycle racks. It truly is a great station. And we might even see a special Amtrak train...
