The Siemens S200 is a high-floor light rail vehicle (LRV), streetcar, or tram manufactured by Siemens Mobility, a division of Siemens AG, in Florin, California.
In September 2013, 60 LRVs were ordered, costing $200 million, for the Calgary CTrain. Deliveries began in early 2016. It has recently been confirmed that three extra LRVs (63 LRVs in total) have been added to the order.
175 LRVs, totalling $648 million, were ordered for San Francisco's Muni Metro in September 2014, with an option for an additional 40 exercised in June 2015. Deliveries began in January 2017.
The S200 model succeeds the SD-100, SD-160, SD-400 and SD-460 as the high-floor version of Siemens's light rail vehicle for North America, and is being manufactured and marketed with the low-floor S70. The American SD-series is based on the Siemens–Duewag U2 family from Frankfurt, Germany with the latest SD models being already assembled in California.
