model train roadshow
Our Model Train Roadshow is kicking off this month! From the end of August through early December, we'll be taking a miniature model of our new electric train to stations, events, and other locations all over the Caltrain corridor. Visit the roadshow stops to get up close to the model train and win rad swag. Check us out on social media to find out where the roadshow is stopping next! For more info click here:

Electric Trains Update
In August,
electric train manufacturing continued with installation
of components like passenger side doors, propulsion gearboxes, and truck bogies. Three trainsets are now being assembled in Salt Lake City.

What Is CalMod?
The Caltrain Modernization Program (CalMod) includes electrification and other projects that will upgrade the performance, efficiency, capacity, safety and reliability of Caltrain's service. The current electrification project will electrify the corridor from San Francisco to San Jose and replace 75 percent of Caltrain's diesel service with high-performance electric trains, reducing air pollution and providing better service to more riders.
