The San Bernardino County Transportation Authority (SBCTA) has welcomed North America's first self-powered, zero-emission passenger train to the San Bernardino Depot Train Station. The train, named ZEMU, operates on a hybrid hydrogen and battery technology, emitting only water vapor and meeting Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) regulations. This innovative approach signifies a leap forward in sustainable transportation for San Bernardino and Redlands. The journey of ZEMU began in Switzerland and culminated in its arrival in Southern California after extensive planning and development by SBCTA over the span of a decade. The move towards cleaner transit options is crucial for the region, given its rapid economic development and environmental challenges. ZEMU's distinctive blue and white design, symbolizing its environmentally friendly operation, will soon undergo final testing before being integrated into the Arrow line and the Metrolink system. This milestone reflects a strategic vision for a greener rail system and a dedication to pioneering transportation solutions in San Bernardino County. The positive sentiment surrounding ZEMU's arrival and its potential to enhance public transit with sustainable technology is evident through the excitement expressed by SBCTA President Ray Marquez. Overall, the introduction of ZEMU represents a promising step towards a more environmentally conscious and efficient public transportation system in the region.
