Overview

The line is set to be the most modern in the network, using automatic trains, a Communications-based train control system like the one being installed on Line C, and Platform screen doors.Confirman proyecto para desviar la línea F a Facultad de Derecho - EnElSubte, 25 November 2014. The line is also expected to have the highest ridership figures when compared to the existing lines.Currently, the second phase of the development is still being defined, since a new railway station is being considered to complement the Retiro railway station, and if Line F is to have access to it, it would mean altering the northern part of the route to connect Line F with Line H further north at the proposed station.Michetti resucita el polémico proyecto Retiro Norte - EnElSubte, 23 April 2015

Line E ghost stations

In 2006, it was considered whether the two Line E ghost stations (San José vieja and Constitución) could be used as the southern point of Line F, considering they overlapped the line's trajectory. However, it was later decided that Line F would use a completely new tunnel with new stations given the frequency the line is expected to have.Realizarán estudios en Constitución para ubicar la cabecera de la línea F - 1 August 2011
