The first cars that will operate on the new East Rail Line arrived in Denver on November 21. They traversed the country as part of a train from Philadelphia where they were assembled. The public can tour the new train cars from Wednesday, Dec. 3 through Saturday, Dec. 6 from 11am to 7pm at the Union Station commuter rail platform (directly behind the historic building).
In addition to the East Line to DIA, the new commuter rail cars will also operate on the Gold Line to Arvada/Wheat Ridge and the Northwest Rail to Westminster, all opening in 2016, and on the North Metro Rail Line to Thornton, opening in 2018.
