Douglas station (Los Angeles Metro)
Douglas is an elevated light rail station on the Los Angeles County Metro Rail C Line.[1] The station is an island platform near the corner of Douglas Street and Park Place, north of Rosecrans Avenue in El Segundo, California. The original name for this station was Douglas/Rosecrans and it may still be used in some places. This station was renovated in 2006 as part of street improvements in the area. The train platform, currently suitable for two-car trains, may be lengthened to accommodate three-car trains to enable increased capacity of the line.[2]
