Washington Metrorail HD 60fps: Kawasaki 7000 Series Green & Yellow Line Trains @ College Park

[@JeffreyOrnstein]

Also known as the R-160W, if you know what I mean.

Some of these trains are on the Red Line again, I rode a 7000 series train this morning and got a video of the ride. The video of the car I rode in (7035) will be uploaded on my channel soon.

I deliver the steel to Kawasaki in Lincoln NE where these are made. Im from DC but live in Nebraska, DUH. Its incredible to go to that plant and see the test tracks they have outside the plant. Nothing but straight aways.

[@robertmason7553]

BTW I work for State Steel and thats where they get most of the steel but not so much the stainless.

[@TrainSounds]

What about the other lines, when will they see them again?

[@FanRailer]

Whenever the power infrastructure is upgraded, I presume.

[@yukiomiyazaki9035]

Is it alright to switch cars while the train is in motion?

[@baetsimpson]

Yukio Miyazaki on the metro you can't go car to car unless you get out at a station and get into another car.

[@inlineskatelifei.s.l1669]

Those doors your talking about are only for employees and emergencies..to go to another car you must do it when you get to the station.....dont get caught going through the doors while the train is in motion..Transit police will get you.

My mom always gets to ride the 7000 series to work :/
