LACMTA 547 • Los Angeles CA • 05/05/24

            A Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority D Line (formerly the Purple Line) subway prepares to depart the station under Los Angeles Union Station.  From here, LACMTA subway car 547, an A650 car built by Breda in the late 80s and early 90s, is going to be headed west to the Wilshire/Western station.  The tunnelling from Western and Wilshire Avenues, to the west, is now complete and the LACMTA is scrambling to get this addition, along with several others, ready for the 2028 Summer Olympics – the third time these games have been in Los Angeles (in both 1932 and 1984).  (Los Angeles, California – May 5, 2024)
