50 years ago today (March 27,
1976) the Washington DC Metro System opened.
The First Portion of the System had
4.6 Miles available on the Red Line with five Stations from Rhode Island Avenue
to Farragut North, all in Washington, D.C.
Today, the System has grown into
a 6 Line 130-mile Network with 98 Stations.
An average of 439,200 People take
the System every day.
In 2025 alone, Metro Rail delivered 147 Million
trips making it the Second Busiest in the Country,
I used to take the VRE (Virginia Railway
Express) into DC and then the DC Metro every day for work.
