[edit] Bay Meadows Station

Up until December 20, 2005, the Bay Meadows Racetrack was accessed by the now-closed Bay Meadows station, which was located less than a half-mile (800 m) north. When Hillsdale was renovated, the platform was extended a few hundred feet to the north, eliminating the need for the separate station. Hillsdale is now the closest station to the racetrack.
