On April 22, 2016, RTD opened the "A Line" commuter rail line that runs from Union Station to Denver International Airport. While Denver has had "Light Rail" trains for 20 years, "Commuter Rail" is new to Denver. These trains are heavier, take more "juice" to run (from the catenary overhead), have more seats, and can move at 79 MPH (versus 55 MPH for Light Rail). Here, a train from DIA arrives at Track 1. A crowd of people await to board for the trip east.
