Los Angeles Metro Rail Breda Subway Cars
Author: erielackawanna

Back on May 4 I rode the Metro to the LAUS 80th Celebration. Here's a going image at Metro Center and a leaving image at Union Station of the Breda subway cars that they are looking to replace in a couple of years.

How old are these cars.  They look to be in a state of good repair.  The light rail portion of the Cleveland RTA, also made by Breda,  are still on the rails from 1981, but parts procurement or fabrication have been a major issue.  Most cars that could be cannibalized have been.  Hence they are looking at replacing their fleet.

Funny thing is that two days later I was riding Cleveland's Bredas.

These are 1991-1998, I think. I believe they are getting rid of them because LA likes to spend money.
