The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 6681, aims to direct the Commissioner of Transportation to conduct a study on the feasibility of operating hybrid trains on the Danbury line of the Metro-North Commuter Railroad. This initiative is intended to explore the potential benefits and practicality of integrating hybrid train technology into the existing commuter rail system.

The bill does not include any deletions from current law but introduces new legal language that mandates the study of hybrid trains specifically for the Danbury line. The purpose of this study is to assess how hybrid trains could enhance the efficiency and sustainability of the Metro-North Commuter Railroad services.
