'''Tri-Rail and Metrorail Transfer station''' is a [[Metrorail (Miami-Dade County)|Metrorail]] and [[Tri-Rail]] [[interchange station]] in [[Hialeah, Florida|Hialeah]], [[Florida]], northwest of the city of [[Miami]] proper.

This station is located near the intersection of East 25th Street and East 11th Avenue in Hialeah, Florida, officially opening for service on March 6, 1989. The station was built as a connection for the Tri-Rail and Metrorail rail systems; though the [[Miami station (Amtrak)|Amtrak station]], which is served by the ''[[Silver Meteor]]'' and ''[[Silver Star (Amtrak train)|Silver Star]]'', is located only a few blocks away, it is not officially connected to this station. The Amtrak station was scheduled to be moved to the [[Miami Intermodal Center]] by late 2018, but was delayed by several years due to a platform length issue. A third Tri-Rail/Metrorail transfer station began service on January 13, 2024 at [[MiamiCentral]], which provides direct access into Downtown Miami along with additional transfer options such as [[Brightline]] and [[Metromover]].<ref name="DML-open">{{cite news |last1=Beyer |first1=Brandon |last2=Quintana |first2=Julian |last3=Rosario |first3=Rubén |title=Grand opening ceremony held for Tri-Rail service into downtown Miami |url=https://wsvn.com/news/local/miami-dade/grand-opening-ceremony-held-for-tri-rail-service-into-downtown-miami/ |access-date=January 13, 2024 |work=[[WSVN]] |publisher=[[Sunbeam Television]] |date=January 12, 2024}}</ref>
