SacRT Operating Mixed Light Rail Fleet
For the next few months, SacRT will continue operating a mixed fleet of both low-floor and high-floor light rail trains on the Gold and Green lines as we complete final testing and make necessary adjustments to onboard the remaining new low-floor trains. This means you might encounter both types of trains on your commute.
The Blue Line continues to operate with our current high-floor light rail trains. Passengers in mobility devices or those who cannot navigate stairs will need to use the mini-high ramps at the end of station platforms for boarding and deboarding. We appreciate your patience as we work through this transition.
March 14, 2022: SacRT Board approves construction contract with Aldridge Electric for the Light Rail Modernization 15-Minute Service to Folsom.
