New
DMU a Hit in Vegas Colorado Railcar's innovative DMU emerged as a new star at the APTA equipment show in Las Vegas this past week. With numerous representatives of transit agencies and consultants, including DART, the Long Island Railroad, BART, CALTRAIN, Amtrak, Tri-Rail, VIA, and Las Vegas Transit, giving the DMU high accolades. Producing a new DMU that could meet the FRA new 49 Part 238 specifications and withstand the 800,000 lb. compression buff load test was thought to be an impossible task by many rail experts. The new DMU which recently surpassed all expectations during testing at the TTC in Pueblo, Colorado, is now headed for Railvolution on October 5, in Washington D.C., and an open house will be held for transit officials (for FRA, AMTRAK, APTA, FTA and Washington area governmental transportation representatives) at the Union Station on Monday October 7th.
