Wow! There's a LOT going on in Austin.

^^Austin's what will be off the hook in a few years? I can't read it. Is it chicken? :lol:I am not certain if you said that as a joke, or you truly haven't realized that the asterisks were not placed there by me. The missing word is "s_k_y_l_i_n_e". Depending on who you ask, it is either the mods, or a hacker playing an A_p_r_i_l F_o_o_l_s D_a_y joke.

^^It was a joke. I know what you said. ;)

Commuter rail gets closer with new trains

Austin Business Journal - 11:48 AM CDT Wednesday, March 28, 2007

Capital Metro's first urban commuter rail train is a long way from home at Stadler Rail Group's Switzerland manufacturing plant, but it's already making an impact in Austin as the first of six diesel-electric trains to have finished assembly.

Stadler has begun static testing of the rail train, and will begin track testing in the next few months. The new train will arrive in Austin for more track testing here this fall. Cap Metro purchased the six rail cars from Stadler for more than $30 million

The six trains will make up Austin's commuter rail fleet, scheduled to begin running every 30 minutes during morning and afternoon rush hours from Leander to downtown Austin. Commuter rail service is scheduled to begin in late 2008.

Each train will have room for approximately 200 passengers, or 108 seated.

MetroRail is part of the All Systems Go long-range transit plan, which also includes expanded local and express bus service, park and ride services, rapid bus service and possibly more rail service in Central Texas.
