The Department of Transportation on Tuesday unveiled a new LRT-1 train, which will be used for the railway's extension to Cavite. 


Four new trains arrived, which the operator of the LRT-1 said make up the first batch of the 120 new trains made in Spain and Mexico.


The 120 new trains will form 34 car train sets and can accommodate up to 750,000 passengers daily.


The Light Rail Manila Corp. said rights issues and the pandemic delayed the delivery of the trains from Spain.
