Posted by Joe Saitta on Wed Sep 3 21:44:45 2008, in response to Re: Los Angeles Green Line, posted by Joe Saitta on Wed Sep 3 21:35:20 2008. Right from the Metro Green Line page....Read.... Fleet: P2020 Sumitomo cars: 15 (154-168 series) P2000 Siemens cars: 36 from a standardized fleet of 52 (from 201-250 series, built 1995-1999) Dimensions: The 15 Sumitomo cars are dimensionally identical to the 54-car Blue Line fleet. The cars were delivered in 1994-1995. Due to the small order and short order-to-delivery time, the cars cost about $3 million each. The 52 Siemens cars will be compatible and interchangeable with the Sumitomo cars. The bodies of the cars will feature a streamlined, aerodynamic design with AC propulsion. The Green Line will share the 52 cars with the Blue Line Pasadena route, as well as the Long Beach Blue Line, and other future light rail lines. The cars cost about $2 million each and began delivery in early 1998. Speed: 55 mph max allowable; to be increased to 65 mph in 2000. |
