Shiloh–Scott station is a light rail station and current terminus of the Red Line of the St. Louis MetroLink system. [7] This at-grade station is located in Shiloh, Illinois, adjacent to Scott Air Force Base, after which the station is named.
Shiloh-Scott opened on June 23, 2003, as part of Phase 2 of the St. Clair County extension, which extended MetroLink 3.5 miles (5.6 km) from College to this station. [8]
This station is the current terminus for the St. Clair County Transit District's 14-mile (23 km) MetroBikeLink shared-use path system. The 2.9-mile (4.7 km) segment connecting the College station to Shiloh-Scott opened in 2017. [9]
The station is divided into two sections: one side is open to the general public and the other side to those with Scott Air Force Base security clearances. [10] Each side has its own park and ride lot.

In 2019, the St. Clair County Transit District was awarded $96 million in Illinois infrastructure funding to build a 5.2-mile (8.4 km) extension of the Red Line from Shiloh-Scott to MidAmerica St. Louis Airport in Mascoutah. [11] This extension will include two 2.6-mile (4.2 km) segments, a double-track and a single-track segment, along with a station at the airport. [12] Construction on the extension began in 2023 with Metro expecting to begin operations in early 2026. [13] [14] [15]
