Event Details

New BART Train Full Size Mock-Up: First Public Viewing | Oakland

Check out BART’s “Fleet of the Future” when a full scale plywood mock up of two-thirds of a train car interior will be set up for free public viewing at MacArthur Station in Oakland from 2-7 pm on July 23-26, 2013.

You can kick the tires (metaphorically… this thing is made of plywood) on the concourse level of the station, in front of the multicolored peacock-feather-like mural.

BART has built the plywood model to give the public a sense of the proportions of the new cars, possible configurations of seats, placement of bike racks and handholds, so visitors can share impressions about these and other new features. After going through the model, fill out a survey and give your feedback.

While it’s not the same as walking through the mock-up, if you can’t make it on one of the tour dates, you can check out some preliminary designs and submit a feedback form online.
