S 25th (Tacoma Link) - The SubwayNut

S 25th Station consists a simple single platform (the only intermediate stop with a single platform), located on the south side of South 25th Street just after the line turns off of Pacific Avenue, south of downtown. The train here has its own designated lane. (a single track streetcar has too, it would be dangerous otherwise). The platform is located right in front of Elephant Car Wash. The station platform consists of a raised separate area with entrances at either end off the sidewalk and has artwork consisting of cut outs of fish above the station's glass canopy. There are also two little windscreens but no benches.

Dedicated November, 2013: Just south of the station is the A Street Pedestrian Underpass under Sounder's Lakewood Extension. The column and support in the middle of the the overpass is covered by Lock on Tacoma. It consists of its two purple columns wrapped with a screen designed for people to add their own love lock. The beam that holds up the railroad above it has oversized hart shaped locks (with plenty of jewels) and oversized keys.
