Ohlone-Chynoweth (VTA)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ohlone/Chynoweth is a light rail station operated by Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority (VTA). This station is served by VTA's Alum Rock-Santa Teresa and serves as the terminus of the little-used, stub Ohlone/Chynoweth - Almaden line, popularly known as the Almaden Shuttle. It was part of the original Guadalupé Line, the first segment of light rail from Santa Teresa to Tasman. Although the Almaden Shuttle also has a stop near it, Ohlone/Chynoweth is very close to the Westfield Oakridge shopping mall.
