Metro Rail Car Mock-Up
Now available for leasing….
The Metro Rail subway car mock-up is half the size of a standard 75-foot subway car and is perfect for filming commercials, for stunt work and pick-up shots! It's mobile too, so you can take it to your studio or sound stage. Lease it for a fraction of the cost of an in-service rail car. This car is a standard rail vehicle, not only to LA but also in Atlanta, Washington, DC and elsewhere.

Interior and Exterior Specifications: The mock-up sits on an 8-wheel flatbed trailer, which can be pulled by a regular tractor truck and features the same interior and exterior color markings as an in service car, as well as a fully equipped driver's cab area.

Trailer/railcar: 11' 3" W x 13' 3" H x 49' 6" L
Mock-up railcar: 10' W x 38' L x 8' H
Approximate Weight: 50-60 thousand lbs.
