Yea me too.
But I like the Blue one whit orange too, it's 100% Mexican build.

See there is a difference Mexico City metro runs both rubber tired and steel trains, so the blue whit orange scheme is for the steel track and the silver and orange scheme is for the rubber tired tracks.

I've never really understood the difference between rubber/steel wheels. Can it be for the fact it's more cost effective to use rubber as opposed steel? Or vice versa?

As far as the green/silver train, what kind of wheels does it have?
