Belen

The Belen Rail Runner Station is located in the heart of Downtown near the site of the old Harvey House - an area that brings passenger rail service full circle to where it all started back in 1901. The station also serves nearby Rio Communities, Jarales, and Tomé. The Belen pedestrian overpass provides easy access to restaurants and galleries on Becker Avenue in downtown Belen.
