Livingston station is a future Altamont Corridor Express station in Livingston, California.[4] It is expected to open to revenue service in 2030 as part of the second phase of ACE's Merced Extension project to Merced.[5][6] The station is located on Main Street. Turlock was selected over Atwater as a stop due to the distance between adjacent stations potentially resulting in fewer bottlenecks for freight trains.[7]
