Line 2 of the Guadalajara Urban Electric Train System is the second line built to optimise public transport by urban rail. It was constructed between January 1992 and June 1994. Its building cost was much higher than that of Line 1 because there was no existing infrastructure as was the case during Line 1's construction, and also because it involved the modification of drainage collectors in order to build new underground infrastructure.[2]

The inauguration of this line took place on July 1, 1994 and was headed by the then Governor of Jalisco Carlos Rivera Aceves (interim) and by the then President of Mexico Carlos Salinas de Gortari. Of the three existing lines, this is the shortest in the network and it is coloured green.
