The west side of the station looked more like a bus stop then a trolley stop.

The east side looking south appeared more like a regional trolley stop. Notice the birds lining the overhead power cables.

The eastern side of the station had a much larger roof for protection from rain. The ticket machines and schedules were on this side of the station.

A red Blue-Line two-car light-rail trolley approached from the south heading north toward San Diego. It pulled up and then passengers were required to push buttons on the outside to open the doors.

Inside the Blue Line car the furnishings were typical of most light-rail systems. A mix of bars upon which to hold while standing and thinly padded seats.
