Can you barely wait until Saturday to ride the Silver Line? Get a sneek peek of the new line with this video from WMATA.

Video from WMATA. The video has no audio, so if you don’t hear anything, your sound isn’t (necessarily) broken.

This shows the view from a Silver Line train as it travels from Ballston to Wiehle-Reston East.

Silver Line trains began running simulated service over the weekend. Trains carry passengers from Largo to East Falls Church under an Orange Line banner, then offload and continue on to Wiehle without any passengers.
