Description
Railway 2 Variant, Massachusetts BayTransportation Authority

Stadler KISS USA
The KISS160 is a double-decker regional train. It gets its name from the German for comfortable innovative speedy suburban train. As a regional train with a high passenger capacity, the KISS has been deployed between western Europe and the Ural Mountains since 2010 – and is set to take to the rails in the USA soon too.

Stadler designed a custom KISS trainset based on the requirements of Caltrain, which started their electrification program for their existing railroad corridor in Bay Area in 2016. KISS USA variant comes with larger mainframe, new wheelset, higher pantograph. KISS USA is also capable to reach up to 180kmph, unlike its European counterparts that are limited to 160kmph.

MBTA has been considering to overhaul their commuter rail with EMUs (Electric Multiple Unit), KISS USA variant was considered as a replacement as well. This is therefore a fictional repaint to see how MBTA KISS would look like.

Train also features high and low entry doors to be compatible with MBTA platforms.

I'll be interested to see whether or not the MBTA actually switches to these. All of their other "improvements" made to other lines over the past couple years have been complete disasters (especially with the new trains they got for the orange and red lines)

I believe i added door markers on both high and low stations, aside that it should be ok. try and see how it works visually

Based on the description
Using the standard entry stations could make the boarding animations look weird?
