Metro line 7 to open Saturday

metroline7.jpg Oh boy, yet another new subway line is opening! Line seven, which will run north-south with transfer stops at Jing'an Temple and Changshu Road stations, is going to start it's first trial runs beginning at 9AM on Saturday. After last month's delayed opening, we've been itching to give this one a go.

We're mostly psyched for the new trains, which look like a blast out of 1990's New York. Look at that checkerboard linoleum flooring! Lime green and bright orange seats? They're even better than the last ones we saw! This train looks good enough to be shuttling you to the Ringling Brother's circus, but it should do just fine for the Expo.
