Downtown Burbank station
Downtown Burbank station is a passenger rail station near downtown Burbank, California. It is served by Metrolink's Antelope Valley Line to Lancaster and Ventura County Line to East Ventura with both terminating at Los Angeles Union Station.
History
The Southern Pacific built their line north of Los Angeles to Burbank by mid-1873. The company rebuilt the station in 1927. That building was destroyed in a fire in 1991. The modern station opened on October 26, 1992, with the inauguration of Metrolink services. In 2020, the Burbank City Council approved an extension of the Chandler Boulevard Bike Path to the station along a route that will include the under-construction Burbank Channel Bikeway and a connection to the San Fernando Bikeway. The North Hollywood to Pasadena Transit Corridor, a bus rapid transit line, currently under construction and scheduled to open in 2027, will stop at Olive/Lake, nearby, but not at, the station, due to safety concerns regarding the existing Olive Avenue bridge.
