Downtown Carrollton in three stops
01 · Where it is Carrollton’s historic downtown, around Carrollton Square near where I-35E meets Belt Line Road. The station is at 1013 North Denton Drive.
02 · What is here
Carrollton Square and the streets around it. The 1924 Missouri–Kansas–Texas (MKT) railroad depot still stands; it was moved in 2008 to make room for the Green Line and named a historic site in 2010. Three railroads once crossed here: the MKT (1878), the Cotton Belt (1888) and the Frisco (1908).

The railroads made the town. When the Cotton Belt crossed the Katy here in 1888, Carrollton grew into a shipping point for livestock, cotton, cottonseed and grain, and it outgrew Trinity Mills to the north. The city incorporated in 1913. Today the same crossing carries the Green Line and the Silver Line.
