Littleton–Mineral station

Littleton–Mineral station (sometimes styled as Littleton•Mineral or referred to simply as Mineral station) is a RTD light rail station in Littleton, Colorado, United States. The station was opened on July 14, 2000, and is served by the Regional Transportation District.^[4][5] The station initially saw service on the C Line to Union Station and the D Line to 30th & Downing station. However, the D Line's northern terminus was changed to 18th & California station in January 2018 and the C Line was suspended on January 10, 2021. The C Line would then be permanently eliminated in January 2023. Currently, Mineral station serves as the southern terminus for the D Line. However, RTD plans to extend this line south to Highlands Ranch as a part of the agency's FasTracks expansion plan. ^[6][7]
