⁴ᴷ⁶⁰ Weekend Closure | Caltrain New Stadler KISS EMU Testing (June 8th, 2024)

Video Category: Compilation
Agency: Caltrain
Train: Caltrain Stadler KISS EMU
Location: Millbrae & Palo Alto Station
In support of electric train testing, there will be no train service between San Jose and San Francisco on June 8 & 9.
The new EMU train sets are seen operating along the entire corridor from San Francisco to San Jose today (June 8th), mocking a full day service. These trains do sound great when they accelerate, right?

For the first time I saw a new Caltrain today it was fast

[@sfmunioperations]

Ikr! I was fascinated to see them moving too!

[@Trainlover1995]

Are they EVER gonna use the AEM-7s for...ANYTHING?

[@sfmunioperations]

For making toasts lol

[@mateojames3231]

Maybe convert them to Christmas Train service? Use them for moving trains or short shunting services?

[@TWF1003]

Or Maybe they can use them to provide electric power on the Gilroy train sets while using the electric section of the line while still having a diesel engine to provide diesel power on the non electric parts of the line.

LA’s Metrolink could also do something like this

Not in love with that e-bell, but I saw one in Mountain View today and they look super sleek! I'm really excited for this new era at Caltrain, I've ridden it my whole life.

[@sfmunioperations]

Me too but it is true that they look quite modern!
