Location

Dickerson is a passenger rail station on the MARC Brunswick Line, situated between Washington, D.C., and Martinsburg, WV (with an extension to Frederick, MD). The station was designed by E. Francis Baldwin and built by the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad in 1891. It is the last station that Frederick-bound trains pass before branching onto the Frederick Branch. It is the least used station on the MARC Brunswick Line. The station sees 4 trains a day in and outbound, and 15 parking spaces available directly adjacent to the station. ^[4]

Station layout

The station is not compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, as it lacks raised platforms for level boarding.
