Extension To Balboa Park Station
The outbound end of the line was originally at Church and 30th Streets, but was extended to the Balboa Park Station in 1991. This extension allowed the J-line to connect to the Green Light Rail Center, and now provides vintage F Market cars a route to the Geneva Yard, where they are stored when not in service. Some J Church trains still use the wye at 30th and Church as a terminus during rush hours.

Famous quotes containing the words extension, park and/or station:
“We know then the existence and nature of the finite, because we also are finite and have extension. We know the existence of the infinite and are ignorant of its nature, because it has extension like us, but not limits like us. But we know neither the existence nor the nature of God, because he has neither extension nor limits.”
—Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)
“Is a park any better than a coal mine? What’s a mountain got that a slag pile hasn’t? What would you rather have in your garden—an almond tree or an oil well?”
—Jean Giraudoux (1882–1944)
“It was evident that the same foolish respect was not here claimed for mere wealth and station that is in many parts of New England; yet some of them were the “first people,” as they are called, of the various towns through which we passed.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
