Metra is getting Battery FLIRT Trains!!

Somewhere in a quiet, southern Chicago neighborhood, lies an unusual railroad track. Running in between parks and houses, the Metra Rock Island Beverly Branch sees relatively frequent suburban service. Trains run from Blue Island up to LaSalle Street Station in downtown Chicago. The most interesting feature of this line, which opened in stages between 1870 and 1899, is the fact that every single station is located exactly 4 blocks apart. Though currently served by regular diesel Metra trains, in the future, Metra will run their dedicated battery-electric trains built by Stadler on this unique branch. Trains Are Awesome!
