Arrow Train Service Advisory:
Beginning Nov. 11 2024 and continuing through February 2025, weekday morning Arrow trains 3801, 3802, 3803 and 3804, along with evening Arrow trains 3848, 3849, 3850 and 3851 will be suspended as Metrolink performs Zero-Emission Multiple Unit (ZEMU) overnight testing.
The ZEMU will operate between San Bernardino and Redlands each weeknight for needed testing and will follow crossing Quiet Zone guidelines.
Arrow passenger rail service is scheduled to begin each weekday at 4:48 a.m. with eastbound train 3806 and end with westbound train 3847 reaching the San Bernardino-Downtown Station at 9:15 p.m.

Metrolink Riders in the Inland Empire can use the Arrow passenger rail service to travel between San Bernardino and Redlands. The Arrow trains serve five train stations and introduce Diesel Multiple Unit (DMU) trains to Metrolink’s cleaner-operating fleet.
Traveling on Arrow is a breath of fresh air, literally! The trains feature a sleek, colorful, and modern design. The Arrow DMUs are powered by smaller, lower-emission diesel engines for a quieter and more energy-efficient ride.
Arrow trains feature several amenities:
- Capacity for 120 standing passengers
- Space for up to eight wheelchair passengers
- USB chargers at most seats
- Storage hooks for up to 12 bicycles
- Level boarding at the station platforms

How to Ride the Arrow Train
Purchasing Arrow tickets is no different than purchasing other Metrolink tickets. All Metrolink ticket and pass types are available for travel on Arrow trains. You may buy tickets on the Metrolink mobile app, from station ticket machines, and at select locations depending on the terms and conditions of your ticket or pass.
Staying informed about delays or disruptions on your train is easy. Metrolink provides notifications via Twitter and on our Train Status web page.
To receive notifications for Arrow service, follow both @MetrolinkArrow and @MetrolinkSB. This will ensure all segments of your travel are covered by our notification system, including the daily express train between the Redlands – Downtown Station and L.A. Union Station. (Please note that on our Train Status web page, notifications for the Arrow service are displayed under the San Bernardino Line.)
Metrolink's Arrow service will have up to 42 trains operating along its nine-mile corridor each day. Because this area did not have passenger trains for many years, drivers, pedestrians and bicyclists must understand the importance of being safe around railroad tracks. Please visit our Rail Safety web page for life-saving tips and information.
To minimize noise from the sounding of horns at crossings, the Arrow corridor has been approved as a Quiet Zone by the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA). A Quiet Zone is a section of track at which locomotive horns are exempt from routinely sounding when trains approach crossings, except in emergency situations. Learn more about Quiet Zones.
