Wheaton is a Washington Metro station in Montgomery County, Maryland on the Red Line. It serves the suburb of Wheaton and is located at the intersection of Georgia Avenue (Maryland Route 97) and Reedie Drive.


The station contains 230-foot-long (70 m) escalators, which are the longest set of single-span escalators in the Western Hemisphere. Service there began on September 22, 1990. It was the north eastern end of the Red Line for nearly 8 years, until the Glenmont station opened in July 1998.


The station features the longest set of single-span escalators in the Western Hemisphere, each featuring a length of 230 feet (70 m), with a vertical rise of 115 feet (35 m).


Its escalators travel at a speed of 90 feet (27 m) per minute (5%) and are set at an inclination of 30 degrees. The trip takes approximately 2 minutes and 45 seconds, though some commuters shorten the time by walking.


There is a separate tunnels and platforms for each direction, instead of the large, vaulted common room seen at most other underground stations in the Metro system.
