- Union Station (Deira Side): This is ideal if you are traveling from areas like Al Qusais or Al Nahda and want to head towards the Airport (Terminal 1 & 3) or Centerpoint.
- BurJuman Station (Bur Dubai Side): Use this station if you are coming from Oud Metha or Al Jaddaf and wish to travel toward Dubai Mall, Burj Khalifa, or Dubai Marina.
Pro Tip: Simply follow the red or green overhead signs inside the station to find the correct platform for your next train.
