Metro has announced it will be honoring the men and women who have served the country this Veterans Day with a special patriotic train, bus, and MetroAccess vehicle serving customers throughout the region.
Per WMATA: Metro is especially proud of the many veterans who work for the agency. As one of the region’s largest employers, nearly 25% of its workforce has served our country in the military. In recognition of their service and the contributions of all veterans in our community, Metro will feature red, white, and blue stars and stripes vehicle wraps until the end of November.
