Scomi Rail / Rolling Stock

The car bodies have a steel chassis, stainless steel structure and make use of aluminum and composite structures. Weight of each car of the train is 22.5 metric tons. The length of a head car is 10.4 m and an intermediate car is 8.6 m. Thus, a 4-car train would be 38.82 m in length. The train is 3.0 meters wide and 4.3 meters tall. Capacities range from 316 (regular)/536 (crush) in a 4-car train to 948/1608 in a 12-car train. In the standard Alweg tradition, walk-through between the trains is provided. There are 2, 1.25m doors on each side each car (4 total per car.) Trains can be configured up to 12 cars if the stations are designed to handle it. For example, a 6-car train would need a 60 meter platform and a 12-car train would need a 120 meter platform.
