History
The station opened on November 22, 1980, and coincided with the completion of Шаблон:Convert of rail east of the Stadium–Armory station and the opening of the Addison Road and Benning Road stations.[1]
In December 2012, Capitol Heights was one of five stations added to the route of the Silver Line, which was originally supposed to end at the Stadium-Armory station, but was extended into Prince George's County, Maryland to the Largo Town Center station (the eastern terminus of the Blue Line) due to safety concerns about a pocket track just past Stadium-Armory.[2] Silver Line service at Capitol Heights began on July 26, 2014.[3]
In 1997, Radisson station of the Montreal Metro's Green Line was redressed to stand in for Capitol Heights in the Bruce Willis movie The Jackal.[4]
