The Green Line is part of the oldest subway in the United States. The short section between Boylston St and Park St opened in 1897 as a way to divert heavy trolley traffic which came downtown from Allston, Brighton, Brookline, Jamaica Plane, Roxbury, and Dorchester. It was quickly expanded to North Station to serve trolley traffic from the northern suburbs.
As commuting patterns changed due in part to the success of the subway the Green Line was extended west to Kenmore Sq and in the 1940s southwest along Huntington Ave. As more and more commuters chose to travel in private automobiles ridership on the trolleys dropped. In 1959 the Riverside branch was opened along a former commuter rail line through Newton. A rebranding of the MBTA system in 1967 renamed the branches that were left as the A, B, C, D, and E branches. The A branch to Watertown Sq. only lasted two more years before finally being axed in 1969.
Boston College B Branch trains run along Commonwealth Ave to Government Center; Cleveland Cirlce C Branch trains run along Beacon St to North Station; Riverside D Branch trains run along the Riverside line through Newton to Government Center; Heath St E Branch trains run along Huntington Ave to Lechemere. Construction has begun on a long planned extension northwest through Somerville which will bring the E branch to Union Sq and the D to College Ave-Tufts University.

First proposed in the 1930s but only opened in 1993 the Orange Line serves the southwest section of Chicago and terminates at Midway Airport. Funding for the line was secured after the cancellation of the controversial Crosstown Expressway. For much of the route the Orange Line runs parallel to CSX and Conrail tracks but connects to the Loop in downtown Chicago. The original terminal at Ford City Mall was cut back due to cost savings but current studies are underway to extend the Orange Line past Midway to the mall.

The Orange Line was the third leg of the Washington Metro to open, though service began running in 1978 as a one way service along the existing Blue Line from New Carrollton to National Airport. It wasn’t until a year later in 1979 that the Orange Line was extended out to Ballston when it began running in both directions. In 1986 the line was extended out to Vienna. Plans at the time to reroute the line through the fast developing Tysons Corner were eventually dropped to prevent a five year delay in construction.
These plans were resurrected with the Silver Line being built through Tysons Corner on its way to Dulles Airport. The Orange Line through Virginia runs along the median of Interstate 66 from Vienna to Falls Church. Originally the line was to run along the median of I-66 through Arlington but city planners rerouted it through downtown Arlington which helped stimulate dense residential development in central Arlington.
From Roslyn to Stadium-Armory the Orange and Blue lines share their downtown subway tunnel and split after ascending to the surface on a bridge over the Anacostia River. From here the Orange Line runs alongside the CSX/Amtrak ROW to New Carrollton.

The Bay Area Rapid Transit system (BART) was, along with the WMATA in Washington D.C., one of the great centrally planned post-war rapid transit systems aimed at addressing the rise of the highway and auto-centric suburbs after World War II in the United States. Planning began in the 1950s for a unified high speed rail system that would serve both the dense inner cities of San Francisco and Oakland and their newly expanding low-rise suburbs. Stations would be spaced closer in the central business districts and further out in the suburbs.
Originally planned to connect Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, San Francisco, and San Mateo counties BART was scaled back when San Mateo dropped out in favor of commuter rail service and the Marin line was dropped due to engineering concerns about running a rail line over the Golden Gate Bridge. Construction began in 1964 and the initial segments began to come online in 1972 and the majority of the system opening by 1974.
The Fremont-Daly City Line, also known as the Fremont Line, was the third BART line to open starting service in 1974 when the Trans-bay Tube opened. It runs until 7pm on weekdays as service is duplicated by the Dublin/Pleasanton Line and the Richmond-Fremont Line.
Construction has begun on a southern extension to San Jose; the first phase to Warm Springs/South Fremont opened in 2017 with the second phase to Milpitas and Berryessa opened in 2020.
