Transit Station (Sanctuary Fortress)

The Transit Station is a room in the Sanctuary Fortress. It appears in Metroid Prime 2: Echoes, called such due to its frequent portals to the Hive Portal Chamber, which is part of a sequence to collect a Power Bomb Expansion. It also contains two harmful lasers.
The Dark Aether version of the room was the Hive Portal Chamber.

==Trivia==
*Alternatively, Samus can use a combined series of Slope Jumps and the Screw Attack to reach the Power Bomb Expansion.https://www.metroid2002.com/echoes/early_power_bomb_transit_station.php This method bypasses the need to use the Dark Portals within this room.
**Although very difficult, this Expansion can also be obtained successfully without the Spider Ball.
