This station was originally proposed to serve the airport terminal directly with an underground station (much like DART's Cityplace Station), but a 2004 study showed that cost would be well beyond acceptable levels and jeopardize a federal grant. The City of Dallas officials and transit agency agreed to a nearby surface-level station on March 12, 2007. Because of this, the station was originally known as Love Field Station during construction. In 2010 Inwood/Love Field Station was designated for bus service to the airport.
Signage at the station still purports a future connection to Love Field.
The Fremont–Daly City line was the third of BART's five lines to open. Service began when the Transbay Tube opened in 1974.
Due to an electrical fire at the Hayward Maintenance Yard in May 2008, BART temporarily slowed or suspended service on the Richmond–Fremont line south of Bay Fair on weekdays and Saturdays. Full service resumed in July 2008.
The Green Line is one of the six heavy railsubway lines that make up the Washington Metro rapid transit system in the Washington, D.C., metropolitan area. The Green Line consists of 21 stations, with termini at Branch Avenue and at Greenbelt. The Green Line runs through Prince George's County, Maryland, and the District of Columbia. It was the last line in the original Metrorail plan to be constructed, and is one of three north–south lines through the city of Washington. It shares nine stations with the Yellow Line (13 stations during rush hour), one station with the Blue, Silver and Orange lines, and two stations with the Red Line.
The Green Line requires 19 trains (10 eight-car trains and nine six-car trains, consisting of 134 rail cars) to run at peak capacity.
History
Planning for Metro began with the Mass Transportation Survey in 1955 which attempted to forecast both freeway and mass transit systems sufficient to meet the needs of the region projected for 1980. In 1959, the study's final report included two rapid transit lines which anticipated subways in downtown Washington. Because the plan called for extensive freeway construction within the District of Columbia, alarmed residents lobbied for legislation which both created a new transportation agency and blocked freeway construction. The agency, the National Capital Transportation Administration, issued a 1962 Transportation in the National Capital Region report, which did not include the route that became the Green Line. A central route under 7th Street in downtown was only added in 1967 primarily to serve the "inner city."
The line connects the central, the western and the southern ends of the city. The stations include:

The Dart was a privateer sloop out of Saint John, New Brunswick that was a notable privateer during the War of 1812. Dart took 11 prizes in her five-month run and two cruises before being captured by an American ship in October 1813. Dart is unique because a logbook of one of its voyages (May 22, 1813 to June 9, 1813) survives at the Dalhousie University Archives along with full crew lists and the articles of agreement at the Public Archives of Nova Scotia making Dart one of the best-documented privateer vessels of the War of 1812.
History
On July 18, 1812, the American vessel Actress was captured by the Royal Navy ship HMS Spartan. HMS Spartan took her to port in Saint John, New Brunswick as prize, where she remained until being auctioned off to new owners. She was renamed Dart and fitted with weapons to serve as a privateer. On May 4, 1813 she received her first letter of marque, and began stocking provisions for her first cruise under Captain John Harris. Dart met with success, bringing in three prizes by June 10, 1813.

Washington Metro Announcements - Randi Miller Doors Opening/Doors Closing
An announcement I recorded in December 2019 aboard the Washington Metro's 2000s-era Legacy rolling stock. I can't remember if it was a 6000 Series or a refurbished 2000/3000 Series. Quite by accident, I discovered that when the famous doors opening and closing chimes play, the announcement is actually emitted through the door-header speaker on both sides of the train. By holding my recording device up to one of the speakers opposite the one that the doors had actually opened to while riding into Downtown DC that day, I managed to get the clearest-possible audio of Randi Miller's voice. And because I have grown up with an absolute love for this announcement, I tweaked the video with some door-motion visual effects and added audio I recorded separately of the door motions on a 6000 Series.

The Green Line is a rapid transit line of the Washington Metro system, consisting of 21 stations in the District of Columbia and Prince George's County, Maryland, United States. The Green Line runs from Branch Avenue to Greenbelt. It was the last line in the original Metrorail plan to be constructed, and is one of three north–south lines through the city of Washington. The Green Line shares tracks with the Yellow line from L'Enfant Plaza to Greenbelt. Enjoy!

An announcement I recorded in December 2019 aboard the Washington Metro's 2000s-era Legacy rolling stock. I can't remember if it was a 6000 Series or a refurbished 2000/3000 Series. Quite by accident, I discovered that when the famous doors opening and closing chimes play, the announcement is actually emitted through the door-header speaker on both sides of the train. By holding my recording device up to one of the speakers opposite the one that the doors had actually opened to while riding into Downtown DC that day, I managed to get the clearest-possible audio of Randi Miller's voice. And because I have grown up with an absolute love for this announcement, I tweaked the video with some door-motion visual effects and added audio I recorded separately of the door motions on a 6000 Series.

This station was originally proposed to serve the airport terminal directly with an underground station (much like DART's Cityplace Station), but a 2004 study showed that cost would be well beyond acceptable levels and jeopardize a federal grant. The City of Dallas officials and transit agency agreed to a nearby surface-level station on March 12, 2007. Because of this, the station was originally known as Love Field Station during construction. In 2010 Inwood/Love Field Station was designated for bus service to the airport.
Signage at the station still purports a future connection to Love Field.

An announcement I recorded in December 2019 aboard the Washington Metro's 2000s-era Legacy rolling stock. I can't remember if it was a 6000 Series or a refurbished 2000/3000 Series. Quite by accident, I discovered that when the famous doors opening and closing chimes play, the announcement is actually emitted through the door-header speaker on both sides of the train. By holding my recording device up to one of the speakers opposite the one that the doors had actually opened to while riding into Downtown DC that day, I managed to get the clearest-possible audio of Randi Miller's voice. And because I have grown up with an absolute love for this announcement, I tweaked the video with some door-motion visual effects and added audio I recorded separately of the door motions on a 6000 Series.

Its another late night, you might be wondering what’s this package you received You don’t know how you got it…. But on the front it says ‘give to Stephanie’ I talked to you a couple times while all the other boys were inebriated The blue glow of the screen shines your pretty face where Im fixated Do you feel your ears keep ringing when the night finally ends… Like a bell. Very soon I will see you again. They’ve fallen in love with you, Cause your smile shines right through every crowd that you’re in. I can’t help but to notice you, It feels just so hard to avoid… The dimples in your chin formed a song that I finally had to sing The ovals in your eyes waste me more than all the shots that you might bring. Yes they did. The practice my patience when I saw you at foundation that a clue Too loud for conversation so I’ll maybe hope to see you at Whole Foods As for now this song is the best I could do to get through to you Through the frowns and the smoke babe I think you’re the truth.. They’ve fallen in love with you, Cause your smile shines right through every crowd that you’re in. I can’t help but to notice you, and I feel it’s so hard to avoid… And I know that I’ve eyes on you Best thing is that you don’t know who I promise that you won’t be dissapointed I Just want to hang out with you
