The free transfer from Farragut North to Farragut West and vice versa is an absolute game changer. Head out the K Street exit from Farragut North and walk two blocks on the same side of the street!
The Transit NavigatorMay 17, 2012If you have a SmarTrip card, you can transfer for free to the Blue and Orange lines at Farragut West. Use the exit at the Front SB and Rear NB to save even more time. Doors open on the left.- Andrea NewlandApril 29, 2011SOOO crowded right around 5pm until 6ish. Sometimes I stay at work just until 7pm to avoid the rush...but the metro goes everywhere!

- There is a major difference in exiting towards L or K, know which way you're heading or you will be going a city block out of your way.
- Flowers best across the park about 100 meters at the flower seller in front of Farragut West entrance: good quality and price.
With an entrance from one of the most powerful streets in the modern world, the K St. Metro station at Farragut North is a world-class craphole.
Almost as many people will get off this stop as metro center next. So dont worry yee tourists or DC rookies, you WILL make it off at your stop during rush hour without acting crazy/being pushy.
If you are catching the Shady Grove train, sitting near the front cars will get you a seat since everyone crowds the 2nd to last car to get out at the escaltors when the train gets to Shady Grove.
Make friends with the paperguy. He's wicked friendly and keeps most of the panhandlers away from the entrance.
The only time I've ever been here is when the Red Line train has a malfunction and has to get us all off of the train. So no good memories!

👨 Gombz.April 19, 2011Headed to Union Station for commuter trains? Get on the first car, you get dropped off at the foot if the escalator. Whether or not the escalator is working, that's another story...
Transfer for the green/yellow lines is the first car.
They are single tracking on the red line today. What else is new?
Please! People with huge mammoth backpacks need to understand to take them off upon entering. This train is way too crowded
Be ready for one gross station. It's been not fixed forever, ceiling falls apart escalators work soso...
They finally fixed the broken platform escalator on the south side. Oh what joy.
- I really wish they would hurry up and fix these damn escalators
