A train arrives at the Arlington Cemetery station.
The station is located in the center of Arlington Cemetery, near Memorial Drive. This is possibly the only station which has no real purpose for commuters, as its only real use is to visit the cemetery and the various monuments and memorials there. It is also the only station that closes earlier than the rest of the system. Service began on July 1, 1977.
