Hey guys!

••• new stuff •••

- Changed the headsigns to model the older trains. As a result, it's 600-odd pieces instead of 1 200-odd, and it's mobile friendly.
- Added station platform with overhead wire.

••• description from original post •••

This is a simple model of the Metro Rail train the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transit Authority (or LACMTA) uses on the Expo Line.

The second phase of the Expo Line opened on Friday, 20 May. Its opening marks the return of rail transit to the Westside and Santa Monica.

I was on the first train to Santa Monica. Me and who-knows-how-many-more-thousands of people. I can't wait to start using it.

1 - headsign, headlights
2 - stopping lights

Enjoy!
