Brightline West will feature Siemens Mobility trains capable of hitting 220 mph on its Las Vegas-to-Southern California high-speed rail line.
Brightline announced Wednesday that it has designated Siemens as its preferred bidder to build train sets for the 218-mile rail line to be constructed between Las Vegas and Rancho Cucamonga, California.
Each train set will feature seven cars that can carry 434-450 passengers and would be able to make the trip in less than two hours. From Rancho Cucamonga, passengers would be able to transfer to the Metrolink to further link into Southern California, including downtown Los Angeles.
