HISTORY

San Fernando Station was build as part of the Vasona Light Rail extension project. This project extended VTA light rail service from the intersection of Woz Way and West San Carlos St in San Jose in a southwesterly direction to the Winchester Station in western Campbell .

The official opening date for this station was to be October 1, 2005, however revenue service was started earlier than planned on July 29, 2005 to accommodate attendees of the inaugural San Jose Grand Prix race.
