LINT trains
Overview
The Alstom Coradia LINT trains primarily serve Line 4 connecting South Keys Station to Ottawa International Airport via Uplands Station.
These trains also run sometimes on Line 2 (Bayview to Limebank via downtown and Ottawa South), though that line is mainly served by Stadler FLIRT trains.
The Coradia LINT runs about every 12 minutes on Line 4. Each train has two connected cars, making it around 41 metres long, with space for up to 262 passengers.
