New Metropolis Transit Maps Now Show the 67 Trolley Extension Through MPO Airport. 

Metropolis Transit is proud to announce an opening day for it's heavily anticipated 67 Trolley extension to Metropolis International Airport. June 4th, will mark the first Trolley extension since 1984's Broadway Trolley Subway. All extensions between 1984 and now were more aimed at the growing Elevated Subway system in Metropolis, however instead of building an elevated subway route along the busy Corlesen Avenue, Metropolis Transit spent 6 years upgrading the 67 from Streetcar to light rail as will as building a new extension to the Airport. Since 1922 when the 67 Line first open as the Corlesen Ave Trolley, there were plans to expand the trolley line into the Former Butler Air Force Base. World War II almost saw this extension happen until metal productions was redirected to war efforts so for year the trolley line ended just east of the Air Force Base's entrance. In 1965, Metropolis City Consul agreed on turning Butler AFB into Metropolis International Airport and approved $3 Million dollars to run a subway line from Woodland Avenue. This plan was canned in 1971 due to The Heroin Binge of the early 1970s.

Current 67 Schedule. 

The 67 Trolley will finally be extended into Metropolis Int'l Airport at 6AM, June 6th, 2016 via a new elevated viaduct and new station within the airport. Unlike most trolley lines, the viaduct limits the stations that can be put on the line so trolley only stop at 51st-Ridge, Avis-Hertz, Parking Lot P3 & P4, Terminal 1, Terminal 2, Terminal 3 and the Airport Transit Center where it connects to Bridgerissa Commuter Railway's Airport Expressway Line. Unlike most trolley lines, a pocket track is in place after Terminal 3 which will provide Short-Turn serviced during the Peak within the Airport doubling the potential service. Double-ended trolleys help make this move possible unlike the older single ended trolley who need to loop around at stations like Airport Transit Ctr. or 49th-Corlesen. The opening is expected to be heavily attended.
