A 6-car Siemens Nexas EMU arrives at Flinders Street station on the Upfield service in Melbourne, Australia. A DART 8500 class commuter EMU at Howth Junction railway station, Ireland. An electric multiple unit or EMU is a multiple-unit train consisting of self-propelled carriages using electricity as the motive power.
The E.M.U Display and Control Module (DCM). The EMU, like the Apollo/Skylab A7L spacesuit, was the result of 21 years of research and development. [Note 1] It consists of a Space Suit Assembly (SSA) assembly which includes the Hard Upper Torso (HUT), arm sections, gloves, an Apollo-style "bubble" helmet, the Extravehicular Visor Assembly (EVVA), and a soft Lower Torso Assembly (LTA ...

[14] [17] This in turn required that a new design of EMU be developed for the Class 313 order, as none capable of running on both systems existed at the time. [ 18 ] Given this requirement, the opportunity was taken to further develop the Class 445 and 446 prototypes that had been produced by British Rail Engineering Limited in 1971, and which ...
Cars are arranged as married pairs, where each car contains a complete set of controls for an engineer, conductor, or brakeman.However, the 'B' Cars (denoted by odd-numbered car designations) contain a handicapped accessible restroom, which is larger than the restroom provided on the M1 and M3 railcars and designed to accommodate a wheelchair, as well as an attendant and/or service animal ...
A particular oddity of Eastern/Anglian region EMU stock was the fitting of fibre glass snow shields between the pantograph and the supporting insulators. One member of the class, 302 302, was experimentally fitted with thyristor control in the early 1970s. After the experiment it was converted back to the original tap changer control, although ...
The British Rail Class 507 electric multiple unit (EMU) passenger trains were built by British Rail Engineering Limited at Holgate Road carriage works in two batches from 1978 to 1980. They are a variant of British Rail 's standard 1972 design for suburban EMUs derived from PEP stock, which eventually encompassed 755 vehicles over five classes ...
The Jersey Arrow is a type of electric multiple unit (EMU) railcar developed for the Pennsylvania Railroad, and used through successive commuter operators in New Jersey, through to NJ Transit. Three models were built, but only the third model is in use today.
