Victor Valley is a future high-speed rail station of Brightline West, running to Las Vegas Boulevard in the Las Vegas Valley and south to Rancho Cucamonga.[2]

The station will be at the north end of the town of Apple Valley adjacent to Interstate 15 at Dale Evans Parkway.[3] Passenger platforms will be in the median of I-15 and accessed via walkway under the northbound lanes of the highway.[4] Construction permits were acquired in March 2020 by Brightline.[3][5] The area will include a maintenance facility. The site also sits near existing freight rail tracks with existing Amtrak Southwest Chief services to Chicago and Los Angeles and future connections are possible with the location of both sites.[6]
