This week, we say goodbye to the Siemens-Duewag U2 trolley cars that for so many years were the face of modern light rail transportation. The U2 cars were the first to be delivered to San Diego in the 1980's and served the city for many years. On January 26th, 2015, they were all officially retired. This video chronicles their years in service, starting in December of 2002 (also the first train I ever filmed) and continuing through almost every year since. The video ends with some clips from late January of 2015, as the new low floor cars replace the U2 cars on the Blue Line. You will see what was probably the last set of U2 cars in service, as they return to downtown San Diego from San Ysidro for the last time.
