The HR4000 is an electric multiple unit rapid transit car being manufactured by CRRC and assembled in Springfield, Massachusetts for the Los Angeles Metro Rail's B and D lines.
The Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (Metro) ordered 64 cars from CRRC in 2017, with options for a further 218 cars. Construction of the trains began in 2021, with the first train entering service only on the D Line on December 20, 2024, due to testing on Section 1 of the D Line Extension.[1]
