| The Washington Metro, or simply Metro, is the public transportation system of Washington, D.C., and neighboring suburban communities in Maryland and Virginia, both inside and outside the Capital Beltway. |
| However, the deepest stations in the system are not in Washington, but at the northeastern end of the Red Line, with Wheaton having the longest escalator in the western hemisphere at 230 vertical feet (70 meters) and 508 feet long (155 meters) diagonally, and Forest Glen being even deeper than that. |
| Metro broke ground on a light rail line in the Anacostia area on November 13, 2004. |
