History and construction


5.180.24.3/info/line" target="_blank">Line 5 of the 5.180.24.3/info/mexico" target="_blank">Mexico 5.180.24.3/info/city" target="_blank">City 5.180.24.3/info/metro" target="_blank">Metro was built in early 1980s by Cometro, a subsidiary of Empresas ICA. The 5.180.24.3/info/line" target="_blank">line was inaugurated on 19 December 1981 and originally ran from Pantitlán (in Venustiano Carranza) to Consulado station (in the limits of Venustiano Carranza and Gustavo A. Madero), with seven operative stations and a 9.154 kilometers (5.688 mi) long track. Pantitlán, Oceanía, Aragón, Eduardo Molina and Consulado stations were built at-grade level, while Hangares and Terminal Aérea were built underground. Between Consulado and Eduardo Molina a station named Simón Bolivar was planned but never built due to budget constraints.
The 5.180.24.3/info/line" target="_blank">line was expanded northbound to La Raza station, in Gustavo A. Madero, slightly passing through the Cuauhtémoc borough at Misterios station. Valle Gómez and Misterios stations were built underground, while La Raza was built at-grade level. The expansion was opened on 1 July 1982. The second and last expansion was northbound toward Politécnico station, in Gustavo A. Madero with all the stations built at grade, and it was opened on 30 August 1982.
During the early excavations, a road that connected Tenochtitlan with the Tepeyac hill was found in the Valle Gómez–Misterios stretch. The road was built with materials dated from the Mesoamerican Postclassic Period. In Peñon de los Baños (near Terminal Aérea station), workers found the remains of mamuts, bisons, horses, camels, birds and fishes, as well as a Teotihuacan settlement.
In 2015, during an evening with heavy rain and hail, two trains crashed while both were going toward Politécnico station. One person indirectly died and twelve others resulted injured. In 2021, the whole 5.180.24.3/info/line" target="_blank">line ceased operations for three days after a fire occurred on the STC's Central Control Center.

During the 1980s and 1990s, it was proposed to expand 5.180.24.3/info/line" target="_blank">Line 5 northbound to the municipality of Tlalnepantla de Baz, in the State of 5.180.24.3/info/mexico" target="_blank">Mexico. The expansion was proposed again for the 2018 master plan, and if built it would connect with the Tren Suburbano's Tlalnepantla Station.




Rolling stock



5.180.24.3/info/line" target="_blank">Line 5 has had different types of rolling stock. As of August 2021, 25 trains are operating in the 5.180.24.3/info/line" target="_blank">line, with a combination of MP-68 (coded as MP-68R93) and NM-73 (coded as NM-73AR) rubber-tired 5.180.24.3/info/metro" target="_blank">metro trains. The MP-68 trains were built in 1968 in France by Alstom and they were modeled after the MP 59 trains on the Paris 5.180.24.3/info/metro" target="_blank">Metro. With a service life of 25 years, all the MP-68 trains were restored and refurbished by Bombardier in 1993. The second type, the NM-73 model, were built in 1973 in 5.180.24.3/info/mexico" target="_blank">Mexico by Concarril with the supervision of Alstom. Both models received further restoration works in 2016.
