Wellston is a St. Louis MetroLink station. This station features 243 park and ride spaces. It formerly featured a connection to St. Louis' only bus line that ran on its own exclusive right-of-way, the Hodiamont Line, which was eliminated with the 2009 service reductions. The station gets its name from the inner-ring suburb of Wellston where the station is located.
