"Antioch (or Hillcrest Avenue) is a Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) station on the Antioch–SFO/Millbrae line served by diesel multiple unit technology. It is located in the median of Highway 4 at Hillcrest Avenue in Antioch, California.
The station serves as the eastern terminus of the eastern Contra Costa extension known during construction as eBART and after construction as BART to Antioch. BART to Antioch is a diesel multiple unit (DMU) line which extends from the Pittsburg/Bay Point station, passing through Pittsburg. Antioch station serves the central area of Antioch in addition to commuters to job centers in San Francisco and other areas. It is also expected to attract passengers from Oakley, Brentwood, and Discovery Bay cities that were envisioned as part of the original extension but could not be included due to cost. BART plans to extend service southeast to Brentwood and upgrade the extension to full BART service while pushing the DMU portion further out." (
