Location

Downtown Carrollton station is a DART light rail station in Carrollton, Texas. It serves the DART Green Line. This station will serve as an inaugural stop on the Silver Line.

History

The station is at the junction of several rail lines. The Green Line utilizes a segment of the former Missouri–Kansas–Texas Railroad. The Cotton Belt and Burlington Northern Santa Fe lines also crossed here.

The former 1924-built Carrollton Missouri–Kansas–Texas Depot was moved 300 feet (91 m) to accommodate the new light rail line. The DART station opened as part of the Green Line's expansion on December 6, 2010.
