What's this?

The only Amtrak Station is at King Street, there's a VRE station at Crystal


City which if there were demand, I'm sure Amtrak could stop at, but unfortunately, the Innovation Campus is pretty much smack dab in the middle. 1.5 miles from CC, 2.5 from King Street.

In addition to hopping on Metro, the Crystal City Metroway (BRT) will get you there in a handful of stops from Crystal City (it doesn't make it all the way to King Street). That's relatively frequent service with (some?) dedicated lanes. It'd be nice if that service did run from King Street for that reason; I don't know what their plans are.
