Meeting a major milestone, Kinkisharyo International, LLC today formally delivered to Los Angeles Metro its first light rail vehicle under the P3010 contract the company was awarded in April of 2012. Today’s delivery marks the only time in Metro’s rail car procurement history that a contractor has delivered the first car on time or ahead of schedule.
