WMATA 2006 New Flyer D40LFR

We are SO back!! 😎

Apologies for the hiatus, been busy with work and life. Anywho, here’s this old girl driven by a friend of mine down US-1 in Virginia. The Cinder Bed Road garage had received a handful of D40LFRs during the 2023 Orange/Silver Line summer shutdown for shuttle work. After the shuttle service’ conclusion, this garage kept their D40LFRs in service until they were retired sometime in January of 2024. Unfortunately, the D40LFR chapter for WMATA has ended (6195 being the last unit in service in June of 2024) 😔 but there’s still plenty of footage and audio recordings lurking in the vault…enjoy the ride.
