| Coquitlam Central | |
Coquitlam Central Station has a single side platform along the line with a metal canopy and glass windscreens over one station that is two tracks in the area raised up on an embankment with access through a tunnel at the outbound end of the platform. Entry to this tunnel is via a ramp and staircase and leads to a glass pavilion entrance (where the TVMs are) on a car drop off loop below the huge bus transit center in a large concrete lot where serving 13 bus bays (including one right along the train station used by the TrainBus) and 20 bus routes converge. It is due to become a SkyTrain station on the planned Evergreen Line.
