Shop By Stops
Or, All I Want for Christmas Are Escalators That Work
By Holly J. Morris - Express Staff Writer

The rides are long and the trains are packed, but there's light at the end of the tunnels: A gift guide with a present for every Metro stop. From Shady Grove to Branch Avenue, from Glenmont to Franconia-Springfield, we've got the goods and where to buy them. Some of these gifts are directly related to their stops; others are a little bit more of a stretch. Some are downright, er, conceptual. So give up that priority seating and spend that tax refund. Merry Metro!
