Infill station

File:The new Reston station on the day of its opening, 3. 23-05-2022.jpg

Reston railway station is an example of an infill station.

An infill station (sometimes in-fill station) is a train station built on an existing passenger rail, rapid transit, or light rail line to address demand in a location between existing stations. Such stations take advantage of existing train service and encourage new riders by providing a more convenient location. Many older transit systems have widely spaced stations and can benefit from infill stations.^[1] In some cases, new infill stations are built at sites where a station had once existed many years ago, for example the Template:Cta station on the Chicago 'L''s Green Line.
