Points of Interest

This is probably the best station on the system, IMHO. The Airport stop is located underground beneath the Ground Transportation Center for the airport. Trains run underneath the North and South runways to reach this station. The station is very open and airy, with symbols of aviation in the roof (a riveted wing). If you have a long layover at Minneapolis, be sure to check this station out!
