Fallowfield is a station on Pittsburgh Regional Transit's light rail network in the Beechview neighborhood of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.[3] The high level stop is located at the end of Broadway Avenue, built where the tracks transition from a street to a private right-of-way. The station serves a densely populated residential area through which bus service is limited because of the hilly terrain. Although a high level stop, there is no fare booth, so passengers must board or alight from the first car of a two car train.
