Addison Road-Seat Pleasant (formerly Addison Road) is a Washington Metro station in Prince George's County, Maryland, USA, on the Blue Line. The station is located in the residential area of Seat Pleasant on Central Avenue near Addison Road. It was the eastern terminus of the Blue Line until December 18, 2004, when the Morgan Boulevard and Largo Town Center stations opened to the east. Service began on November 22, 1980.
In December 2003, security cameras at this station filmed a deer walking around the station mezzanine, running down an escalator, and going down the platform past a waiting train, as startled passengers watched. The deer then jumped onto the tracks and escaped into nearby woods. Metro spokesperson Lisa Farbstein reported that Metro had nicknamed the deer "Rudolph the Blue Line Reindeer". [1]
