East Lake is an at-grade Train station on the Blue Line of the Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority (MARTA) rail system. It has a island platform and two tracks that serve the platform in each direction. This station was opened on June 30, 1979. MARTA's opening cermonies and speeches took place in the south parking lot at this station. This station mainly serves The Village of East Lake, Oakhurst, and the Communities of Decatur, and Lithonia.
The station is less than a mile from the Oakhurst neighborhood but is two miles from East Lake, its namesake home of the Bobby Jones-associated East Lake Golf Club. (True to its name, the station is accessible from East Lake Road via the short connecting road Paden Circle.) 611 parking spaces are available for commuters on site. There are two Zip car parking spaces in the north parking lot. It provides Connecting Bus Service to The Village of East Lake, The Community of Oakhurst, East Lake Golf Course, GRTA/Panola Road Park and Ride, and The Mall at Stonecrest.
The south parking lot has an elevator, but the north parking lot does not.
