Eugenia metro station[a] is a station of the Mexico City Metro in the colonias (neighborhoods) of Vertiz Narvarte and Del Valle, in the borough of Venustiano Carranza, Mexico City. It is an elevated station with two side platforms served by Line B (the Green-and-Gray Line), between Oceanía and Ricardo Flores Magón stations. The name of the station references the colonia of the same name, which in turn was named after Manuel Romero Rubio, who served as the Secretary of the Interior between 1884 and 1895; its pictogram depicts his bust. The station was opened on 15 December 1999, on the first day of service between Villa de Aragón and Buenavista stations. The station facilities are partially accessible to people with disabilities as there are tactile pavings and braille signage plates. In 2019, Romero Rubio metro station had an average daily ridership of 8,014 passengers, making it the sixth least used on the line.
