Metropolis Connector's Red Loop Uses Modern & Vintage PCC Trolley Cars. |
DashTransit Service's expanding transit network in Metropolis take another benchmark today with opening of two new lines that will run from the heart of Downtown. Metropolis Connector's Red Loop will open today along the formerly abandoned 47 Trolley Line from Downtown to House Park. Stopping at dedicated stops and running on a 15 min schedule from 6AM-8 PM, the line is the second Trolley Rapid Transit (TRT) to open in the city. The Red Loop will use vintage and modern PCC Cars from both Metropolis Transit & the Geneva Heights Trolley Museum. It's a changed from the brand new Siemens trolley cars that are currently operating on the Blue Loops.
CERT Bus Uses The Newest DTS Buses. |
The Christine Expressway Rapid Transit Bus or CERT Bus also begins today. Using DashTransit Service's newest New Flyer buses, the line will run 5 minute service along the Christine Expressway for most of the day. With Bus Stops at the mouth of widened on-ramps, getting on and off the bus has never been easier and faster. The ride from Bay of Silence to South Portland Airport will take 45 Minutes. A major reductions from the 47 El/E Bus combo which roughly takes and hour and the Subway/17 Bus combo which take even longer. This also means a one-seat ride from Downtown to the Airport. There is also service to Inverness, which is only 50 minutes compared to the hour and 10 minute ride on the M>Railway.
