I'm guessing the shells, which are manufactured in Mexico, are being delivered to NY and and their path happened through Austin. Don't see the bogies on this one thus the likely empty shell. Though if they wanted to drop off a couple here and let Cap Metro have them I wouldn't complain

"The construction of these trains is an international affair. The shell bodies of the cars are being fabricated in Mexico, the seats in Indiana, doors made in China, and car body compression testing in Canada. Then it all comes to get assembled at Bombardier in New York, with a total, approximate price tag of $2.5 billion."
