Fish Creek-Lacombe is a stop on the South Line (Route 201) of the C-Train light rail system in Calgary, Alberta.
It was one of the two new stations to open on October 9, 2001. The station was, until June 27, 2004, the southern terminus of the South Line. It is located between Macleod Trail, Millrise Boulevard and adjacent to 146 Ave S.W. and was designed with the former Midnapore train station in mind, being an active replica that is used as part of Calgary's Light Rail Transit system.[citation needed]
It is located along Macleod Trail and serves the Fish Creek Provincial Park and St. Mary's College, as well as the neighbourhoods of Midnapore, Shawnee Slopes and Millrise. A large 1130 space park-and-ride lot is located on site.
In 2005, the station registered an average of 6,200 boardings per weekday.[1]
