The carriages, which have the following facilitices that include; total capacity of 20,000 seats, air conditioning,full access for passengers with mobility issues, as well as 38 carriages with a driver’s cabin and space for bicycles and children’s buggies.
All doors have a standard height of 76cm, and when the doors open, a sliding platform will come out to bridge the remaining gap between platform and train.
The carriages are also equipped with a suitable toilet and an intercom system for use by mobility passengers.
