CPTM Series 9000

The CPTM Series 9000 is a class of electric multiple units operating on CPTM Line 11-Coral, later on Line 13-Jade and currently on Line 12-Sapphire. It was built by Alstom in 2012, but began operating in 2014. Each trainset was built in CPTM's new style, with air conditioning, eight cars and open gangways allowing access to all of the cars. When they were delivered in April 2014, the Series 9000 trains operated only on Line 11-Coral, with the objective of enhancing rail transport in São Paulo for the 2014 FIFA World Cup. On 11 September 2018 the compositions began operating on Line 13-Jade, in December 2018 one train made tests on Line 12-Sapphire, and a year later the class began operating on it. The series was fully certified for full operational service, including peak hours, in the beginning of 2015.
