The Bogotá Metro has reached a major milestone. On Tuesday, September 2, the first train of the city’s inaugural metro line arrived at the port of Cartagena after a month-long journey from China. Bogotá Mayor Carlos Fernando Galán confirmed the arrival on social media, declaring: “The first train of the Bogotá Metro is in Colombia. The train, manufactured by the Railway Rolling Stock Corporation in Changchun, China, is part of a fleet of 30 units destined for Line 1 of the Bogotá Metro.
