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 Cermak–McCormick Place station on the Chicago 'L''s Green Line.
