NEW Metrolink Arrow Train Redlands California

Southern California has a brand new commuter train! On October 24 2022, the ARROW began running in between San Bernardino and Redlands. Upgrades to the route ARROW uses took about 3 years to complete, starting in 2019. Trains run daily with trips departing about once an hour in each direction on weekends with a few additional runs on weekdays during the busy rush hours of commuter traffic. While ARROW is owned by San Bernardino County, it is operated as an extension of the Metrolink system. ARROW uses a brand new fleet of self propelled diesel rail cars, known as Diesel Multiple Units. These particular cars were built by a Swiss company called STADLER at their factory in Salt Lake City, Utah. In this video, we will explore this new commuter line, stopping at several locations along the route to see the DMU rail cars pass by.

I like that new Redlands Metrolink light rail service.

That's Stadler Flirt, we have a lot of them in Poland and they are very well designed and built. They come in both commute and long distance configurations. I love the first class on the long distance version, I just sit at a table with some work to be done and enjoy the ride. Flirts are very reliable, comfy, with smooth rolling bogies and easy acess for those with special needs. Greetings from Europe!

Great video, CoasterFan2105! Those Metrolink arrows are very unique and very cool.

Nice video. I haven’t seen NEW Metrolink Train arrow before. 🙂❤️

[TigerRailfan]

Really great how Metrolink is expanding service, especially considering the relatively low population of Redlands compared to something like Riverside.

[isaacrogers]

I actually worked on these a little bit in Salt Lake City when I did an internship at Stadler in High School.

Its so beautiful I live in Beaumont, they gotta expand it to Moreno Valley, Beaumont, Banning & Palm Springs.

[SoCalOCRailfan]

Fantastic video!! It’s so cool having these European hydrogen DMU’s as they really make a great benefit for the 9 mile long route.

[SuperChava]
