Pioneer station is a planned light rail station in the Los Angeles Metro Rail system.[1] It will be the southern terminus of the Southeast Gateway Line project, located in Artesia at Pioneer Boulevard.[2] The segment of the corridor is expected to begin operations in 2035.[3] The route may later on be further expanded along the West Santa Ana right-of-way, but Metro has not yet announced any plans to do so.
The station is located adjacent to the former Pacific Electric West Santa Ana Branch Artesia station,[4] built in 1906.[5] Passenger services operated until 1950.
