I think you're talking about the Penn Station, to which the answer is yes, its the end of the dark blue line on the right side.

I thought it was called Union Station. The closest light rail station is in Steel Plaza. Apparently there used to be a light rail station near Union Station, and the light rail station was called Penn Station, but it closed like five years ago.
