I am not sure what equipment they will run on the Green Line--I can't imagine them needing four-car LRV trains for a one-mile run. It seems like a good opportunity to try out a streetcar instead, although they may have enough LRVs to just run a one-car train back and forth all day.
they are gonna retrofit the LRVs they bought from the VTa and use those on the green line. i imagine they will be using 1-2 car trains, maybe even 30 minute intervals rather than 15. It will start at 13th street, and end at richards somewhere near 7th. at least thats what RT's site said last time i looked.
