Duboce and Noe station
light rail stop in San Francisco
Duboce and Noe station (also known as Sunset Tunnel East Portal and Duboce Park) is a light rail stop on the Muni Metro N Judah line, located inside Duboce Park at the east portal of the Sunset Tunnel in San Francisco, California. The eastern portal of the Sunset Tunnel is located just west of the station. The station opened with the N Judah line on October 21, 1928.
The station has two side platforms located along the southern edge of Duboce Park with two mini-high platforms at the Sunset Tunnel portal which provide access to both lines for people with disabilities.
The stop is also served by the N Bus route which provides service along the N Judah line during the early morning when trains do not operate. Unlike all other N Judah stops and stations, the N Owl bus route does not stop at this station, instead staying on Haight Street, about two blocks away.

Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 23, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q5311052. Authority coordinates are 37.769, -122.434. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank.

A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
