British Rail APT-P - Class 370

The Advanced Passenger Train, classified as the Class 370 was a experimental and very technologically advanced high-speed tilting train made by British Rail Engineering Limited after extensive and expensive research. Ultimately, it gained a reputation for poor ride quality with the tilting action reportedly causing people to get motion sick. It was introduced in 1980 but ultimately retired soon after in 1986. The technology was ultimately sold to Fiat Ferroviaria.

In this mod, there is the option of a realistically spec'd standard 14-car set and shortened 7-car set.
Since NIMBY doesn't have classes or restaurants on the train, I've also included 14 and 7 car sets made fully of 2nd class cars for increased capacity.
Each can be found in the 3 liveries under the decal selection:

• InterCity APT Black Text and Black "mask"
  
• Bare yellow front
  
• InterCity APT Red Text and Black "mask"

Specifications for a Standard 14-car Set:
Max Speed: 250 km/h (155 mph)
Capacity: 534
Mass: 464,600 kg
Power: 6,000 kw
Price: $41,400,000
Maintenance Cost: $480 per day
Running Cost: $0.05 per km per pax
Length: 293.88m

The fully 2nd class set has a capacity of 754 pax and a slightly lighter weight of 457,800 kg.
