Night Moves: Muni Testing New 3-Car LRV Trains After Dark:Last week, the SFMTA posted video of a late-night, three-car test train.The tests have reportedly gone well and three-car trains could be rolling out systemwide as early as this spring, said the transportation agency. But first, new two-car trains will be put out on the most-used routes, like the N-Judah, sometime in April.Deploying longer trains presents certain challenges: some Muni platforms aren't long enough to accommodate three cars, which might also require more operators.Where the SFMTA is ready to deploy three-car trains is the subway, which was part of the subway testing last summer.
