On Tuesday, we posted our eighty-sixth challenge to see how well you knew Metro. I took photos of five Metro stations. Here are the answers. How well did you do?

This week we got 31 guesses. Fifteen got all five right. Great work, Alex C, Solomon, dpod, Peter K, JamesDCane, J-Train-21, Steven Yates, Chris H, Stephen C, Patrick, skildpadde, DavidDuck, R2-JL, We Will Crush Peter K, and Peter K is a nice guy, don’t be hatin’ on him!

Image 1: Vienna

The first image was fairly simple, showing a view of Vienna station from westbound I-66. Metro has a few stations in the median of a freeway, but only Vienna and Wiehle Avenue have bridges across to both sides of the roadway. Wiehle Avenue’s bridges are a different design, with brighter metal. Additionally, Wiehle’s parking is located only on one side of the station, unlike at Vienna, where there are garages on both sides.

All 31 of you knew this was Vienna.

Image 2: McLean

The second image looks down into the lower mezzanine at McLean station. The design elements and the newness of the concrete and fixtures should have told you this was a Silver Line station. Since we’re looking down into the mezzanine, this can only be one of three Silver Line stations with a mezzanine below the tracks: McLean, Tysons Corner, and Spring Hill.

However, you can eliminate Spring Hill because there’s no roadway visible to the left, meaning this isn’t a median station. At Tysons Corner, the lower entrance has a completely different escalator and elevator arrangement, and from this direction, the exit would be straight ahead, not out to the right.

That leaves McLean, which 21 of you figured out.

Image 3: Morgan Boulevard

The third image was taken looking up at the roof above the mezzanine from the platform at Morgan Boulevard. The canopy here is clearly one of the Gull II designs, present only at the three stations opened in 2004. However, at Largo and NoMa, the mezzanine is below the tracks, not above as it is at Morgan Boulevard.

Twenty-two came to the correct conclusion.

Image 4: Dupont Circle

The fourth image shows the view looking through the escalator canopy at Dupont’s southern entrance. The art deco building visible here is 1350 Connecticut Avenue (though viewed from the 19th Street side), which was built in 1928 20 years before even the underground trolley station at Dupont Circle opened. Your best clue to answering this one was to recognize the building.

Twenty-four were able to come to the correct conclusion.

Image 5: L’Enfant Plaza

The final image shows the eastern mezzanine at L’Enfant Plaza. This mezzanine, which leads to the Constitution Center entrance on the southeast corner of 7th and D SW, is closed on weekends. Knowing which stations have closed entrances on weekends would have been a start to solving this picture.

An additional clue is the “_AND AVENUE” text on the sign, which refers to Maryland Avenue. L’Enfant Plaza has an entrance at 7th and Maryland, and that entrance is open at all times. Maryland Avenue doesn’t come close to any other station.

The word could also have potentially been “Rhode Island,” however the Rhode Island Avenue station is above ground, and while Rhode Island Avenue comes close to Farragut North and Shaw, signage at those stations doesn’t refer to Rhode Island Avenue.

Twenty-six sussed out the right answer.

Thanks for playing! We’ll be back in two weeks with another quiz.
