Xochimilco is the southern terminal of the Xochimilco Light Rail. It is located in the south of Mexico City in the borough of Xochimilco.

Xochimilco is the southern terminal station of the Light Rail, located in the center of the borough that bears the same name, famous for its trajineras, chinampas, and the extensive network of canals that is the home to flora and fauna that once existed throughout the valley of Mexico. The logo of the terminal is the glyph that means "Xochimilco".

In November 2007, the relocation and construction of the new station began to increase the capacity of the service, in what was previously a maintenance workshop of the Light Rail. The old station, whose infrastructure had two platforms and a single track for the light train, was demolished and instead is a two-track railway with an island platform that serves to access the new station. The new station was officially opened on 14 December 2008.^[1][2]

The station makes use of the Spanish solution.
