Eyes on the Trains: New Metro Railcars
Check out Metro’s brand new railcars!
In 2019, Metro shared early images of its HR4000 heavy rail subway cars. Since Metro first started taking delivery of the new railcars in the summer of 2023, they have occasionally shared photos online. Today was the first time SBLA spotted actual test trains making their way through Metro stations.
Metro purchased new subway cars to support the D (former Purple) Line subway extensions westward, the first segment of which is expected to open in 2025.
