BART Green Line
The Fremont–Daly City line of the Bay Area Rapid Transit system in the San Francisco Bay Area consists of 19 metro stations from Fremont to Daly City. It passes through Union City, Hayward, San Leandro, Oakland, and San Francisco. Throughout its journey, it shares its tracks with other lines.
This line operates during the daytime, Monday through Saturday. There is no service on weeknights, Saturday nights, or at any time on Sundays. Passengers who wish to travel to/from Fremont and San Francisco/Daly City at these times must transfer between the Richmond - Fremont Line and the Dublin/Pleasanton Line. Transfer with the Pittsburg/Bay Point Line is also possible, but the timing of the transfer may not be convenient.
BART lines are usually not referred to by the color that identifies them on official system maps, so this line is rarely called the Green Line and the term is never used by BART officials. It is sometimes called the Fremont Line. In May 2008, an electrical fire at the Hayward Maintenance Yard caused the Fremont Line to end at Hayward Station. Soon after service was restored but with only half as many trains in service as repairs were being made. Full service was restored in July 2008.
The line will be extended to Warm Springs in 2015 and then to Berryessa in San Jose in 2016-2018.

Famous quotes containing the words green and/or line:
“Thou hast conquered, O pale Galilean; the world has grown grey from thy breath;
We have drunken of things Lethean; and fed on the fullness of death.
Laurel is green for a season, and love is sweet for a day;
But love grows bitter with treason, and laurel outlives not May.
Sleep, shall we sleep after all? for the world is not sweet in the
end;
For the old faiths loosen and fall, the new years ruin and rend.”
—A.C. (Algernon Charles)
“Men are not to be told anything they might find too painful; the secret depths of human nature, the sordid physicalities, might overwhelm or damage them. For instance, men often faint at the sight of their own blood, to which they are not accustomed. For this reason you should never stand behind one in the line at the Red Cross donor clinic.”
—Margaret Atwood (b. 1939)
