Description:

The High Capacity Metro Train with Public Transport Victoria (PTV) livery is an electric multiple unit developed by Downer Rail and CRRC Changchun Railway due to enter service in mid-2019.
In real life, the 7-Car version will have capacity for 1380 people and can potentially expand to 10 cars for a capacity of 1970. This is due to the fact that most of the seating has been replaced.

I’ve made this to be line colored so you can adjust it to be whatever colo(u)r you desire. As you can see, the 7- Car is a bit longer than the default station. I would recommend the 6 Car version if you are ok with it overhanging just a bit.

Capacity: ~150 per passenger trailer, ~130 per engine.
Speed: Default
Line Colors: Yes
Recommended Line Color for Melbourne: #008cce

About:
This train kept on popping up in my head as something that I needed to attempt. I only got a quick glance at it when showcased at Birrarung Marr in February, but some of the 3D renderings on YouTube gave me some good bases to work off. I am not 100% happy with some of the texturing, I still need to work on getting things aligned properly on curved surfaces, but think it turned out ok at most distances.
