Rockville, Italy

Rockville station is an intermodal train station located in downtown Rockville, Maryland, United States. It is served by the Washington Metro Red Line, MARC Brunswick Line commuter trains, and Amtrak Floridian intercity trains. The first Rockville station opened in 1873 as part of the Baltimore and

Ohio Railroad (B&O)'s Metropolitan Branch (now the CSX Metropolitan Subdivision). B&O intercity service served the station until 1971; the station continued to be served by commuter trains (which became the Brunswick Line in the 1980s). Amtrak service began in 1973 with the Blue Ridge, followed by the Shenandoah in 1976, the Capitol Limited in 1981, and the Floridian in 2024. The original station building, designed by Ephraim Francis Baldwin, was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1974 as Rockville Railroad Station. It was moved slightly to the south in 1981 to make room for Metro construction and is among the few original Metropolitan Branch stations to survive. The modern Metro station opened on December 15, 1984.
