Metropolitan Transit Authority of Harris County (METRO- Houston, USA) launched the new generation of light-rail cars produced by CAF. Other CAF vehicles will enter service over the weeks that lead to the April 2015 opening of two new METRORail East/Green and Southeast/Purple Lines.The new units will give METRO enough rail cars to stage double-car service most of the day Monday through Friday.
METRORail will have 76 cars to operate with once the 39 CAF H3 vehicle delivery is complete.
CAF USA, a subsidiary of Spain’s Construcciones y Auxilliar de Ferrocarriles, is contracted to provide the new H3 cars to serve throughout the METRORail system.
