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.
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]
