Austin's new commuter rail system
Posted by Jim Olenbush on Thursday, October 18th, 2007 at 6:01pm
Austin will have a another option for public transportation soon! The new commuter train line will be called the Capital MetroRail, and the first section is set to open in Fall of 2008. Sleek new trains will provide service for suburban and central Austin residents.
Capital MetroRail's initial service will run on 32 miles of existing freight tracks between Leander and Downtown Austin. This should give the Cedar Park and Leander housing market an extra boost as homeowners in that area will be able to commute to and from downtown while using WiFi on the new trains. Further expansion of the system is planned to begin soon.
