BART is selling decommissioned train cars
As KTVU anchor Mike Mibach asks, What would you do with an old BART car?
SAN FRANCISCO (KTVU) - BART released new details on its proposal to sell decommissioned trains cars as the old fleet gets replaced.
A spokeswoman for the transit agency, Alicia Trost, told the Chronicle that the deal comes with a few rules.
The 22-ton cars, many of which are from the original 1972 fleet, will sell for up to $10 thousand dollars. Most of the cars will be stripped and won't include the BART logos.
Buyers have to have a "crystal clear lifetime and recycling plan" for the car.
Though the formal proposal process is still months away, some buyers have already expressed interest including Airbnb owners, a local brewery, homeless advocates, and first responders.
