The Metro Streetcar, operated by Rock Region Metro and formerly known as the River Rail Streetcar, is a two-line heritage streetcar system operating in Little Rock and North Little Rock, Arkansas. It has operated since November 1, 2004, and expanded in 2007. The streetcar now operates over 3.4-miles (5.5 km) of track in a figure-eight loop pattern, essentially two loops in each city connected by a single-track stretch across the Arkansas River on the Main Street Bridge. One of the system's five trolleys, similar to old Birney trolleys but built in the 21st Century by Gomaco Trolley Company, rolls to a stop at the corner of Scott and Markham Streets as it ends its trip across the bridge and, after the stop, will head east down Markham toward the Bill Clinton Presidential Library on the Little Rock loop. Car 409 is one of five cars operating on this line; cars 408 and 409 were built in 2004, and cars 410 to 412 were built in 2007.
The Metro Streetcar system consists of two lines: the Blue Line operates seven days a week between Little Rock and North Little Rock, and the Green Line operates six days a week only (with no Sunday service) and services only the loop in the capital city of Little Rock.
