We report gated terahertz cyclotron resonance measurements on epitaxial Bi2Se3 thin films capped with In2Se3. The properties of a single topological interface state are measured from the vicinity of the Dirac point to above the conduction band edge. A precipitous drop in the scattering rate with Fermi energy indicates decoupling of the surface states from bulk states and a shift of the Dirac cone towards mid-gap. Near the Dirac point, the mobility is 3500 cm^2/Vsec with measured potential fluctuations of 60 meV.
