@sfbart: On Monday, July 28, BART accepted its 1,000th Fleet of the Future car from Alstom – Car No. 4690 – which pulled onto test track around 4:30am. It’s a major milestone for the project, to be completed in 2026 when BART accepts the final 1,129th car. So what happens next? Welcome to BART’s Hayward Test Track, a 2.25-mile-long stretch of rail where BART accepts, tests, and prepares for service brand-new Fleet of the Future train cars. By the time new cars arrive on BART property from Alstom’s manufacturing facilities in Plattsburgh, New York, they are nearly ready for showtime. But before they carry passengers in the system, the cars must go through a series of tests conducted by specialized BART and Alstom staff. #train

if this is the case, why wasn't the brake issue that causes the wheel to need to be repaired very often caught? whats the solution when the cars are no longer under warranty?

Is the BART system a Light Rail System? Could a BART Train Vehicle run on the Light Rail System of any other City like Honolulu's Light Rail System?

I don’t think I ever thought about each of the cars being able to run on their own. 🤯
